An overgrown statue.
A file size of 223 mb for the ivy (2mb for the statue).
In v3.7:
parse time: 81 CPU seconds (1 thread)
trace time: 6 minutes (2 threads)

There are a number of issues one has to take into account:
- the x-axis orientation is switched between the Generator and Poseray. This 
may give problems with assymetrical objects. Just inverse then the Ivy 
object along x.
- As said by Jeremy already: watch out for the transparency mapping.
- several of the sliders work differently from what is expected.
- make sure your obj file is correct. I started using obj generated by Silo 
(which work perfectly otherwise) but in the Generator they showed only half 
the triangles as opaque. Solution was to pass the obj file through Poseray 
and export again as an obj file. Worked correctly.
- The generator by default turns the normals inwards.
