Well, the POV-Team has repeatedly and very clearly stated that one cannot 
compare the benchmark results between different versions of POV-Ray.  And 
certainly a beta version with plenty of bugs cannot be compared to an older 
final version of POV-Ray.  As such, the comparison about POV-Ray 3.6 release 
and POV-Ray 3.7 beta says absolutely nothing about the speed increase.
