Under POV-Ray for Windows 3.1g, the PPS counter is the PPS rate for the
whole image up to this point.  This means, for example, that if the first
part of your image renders quickly, while the rest renders slowly, the PPS
value will be too high.

With MegaPOV, I've found that the PPS counter does not update very
frequently.
