  some questions on radiosity technique

Hi.
I have some questions about the radiosity save_file and
load_file, hope someone can help.

If I'm pre-rendering with:
radiosity {
        ...
        save_file "mypic.rad"
        always_sample on
}
to get a save file, then
radiosity {
        ...
        load_file "mypic.rad"
        always_sample off
}
at a higher res for the final image, then:

1) do the saved radiosity data after the pretrace
of the first render get used in the final render?

2) is there any point in turning anti-aliasing on
for the first render?

I'm assuming 1) yes, and 2) no, for now :-)
