The settings are not well chosen.  With Povray 3.5 try starting with the
values in 'rad_def.inc' and change them if necessary.  

Concerning your values: 

- recursion_limit 3 can probably be decreased to at least 2.
- error_bound 0.05 is way too low for count 128 in such a scene (or try
increasing count a lot, but be aware of the memory requirements).

BTW, maybe consider posting a jpeg next time since this would be much
smaller.
