I guessed so, but I still can't see how this approach would affect
whatever densities you're using. All I am suggesting is to test
samples against the relevant densities only. If a ray does not hit a
density's bounding object then nor will any samples along it,
therefore all tests of this ray with this density are just a waste of
rendering time. The output should not be affected regardless of the
addition of 500 samples contributing zilch. IMHO, that is.
