Hmm, I'm not sure if I understand you correct. You mean using adaptive 2 
makes only sense when using *more* than 5 by 5, right?

Actually I never did a serious speed/quality trade-off compare regarding 
area_lights parameters and used more a "I guess this might work" and 
alternatively a "better more than less" approach. Probably not a good 
idea, so thanks for the head up.
