It is described in '2.6.2  Photons, Dispersion and Improved Radiosity' however
it is not clear what should have priority:

  Instead of using the INI options "Preview_Start_Size" and "Preview_End_Size"
  to control the radiosity pre-trace gathering step, use the keywords
  pretrace_start and pretrace_end within the radiosity block inside
  global_settings.

BTW: I think it is enough important to be placed in main radiosity chapter
instead of "What's new in 3.5".
