Assuming you have POVray 3.6. Start the application, then from the 
Render menu select the "Run Benchmark" option.

12mins seems awfully fast for a Centrino 1.3GHz. I have an AMD64 3000+ 
and it took me 25mins to render at the same size (+h60 +w80 +a0.3). That 
said, you did ofcourse switch on anti-aliasing?
