  Photons and Dispersion: Advice needed

I've been working on an image with a glass-vase
lately (to be found in the images, look at the Gerbera
related images).

I was using photons, and decided to go for dispersion
as well.
But when introducing dispersion to the scene, I get a lot
of artifacts, even when dispersion-samples are set to
50. I'm using a dispersion-amount of 1.02, and I just
wanted to ask if anyone has some experience and can
tell me some general good rules, what amount to use (in
regard to the scale of objects, or what, I don't know what
the value is for exactly) and how dispersion affects the
actual photons themselves.

Thanks in advance!
