Btw, I don't think it's the first recursion level (ie. the rays shot
from the camera) which consume the majority of the rendering time. The
majority is consumed by the additional rays spawned recursively from
the first and subsequent intersecions.

  Even if your idea worked it would only speed up the first recursion
level, but not the others.
