I have a business partner that I'm working with to create a website. Their
main imagery takes 14 hours to generate with POV-Ray. I relayed this to them
when they asked for some minor changes (I told them to make sure that was
all they wanted). This is a short excerpt from their response:
> Randy and I have access to a Convex Exemplar supercomputer with 6
processors and 2 GB of ram. Think that will render faster? THis HP-UX
parallel processor is located in our building.
Think I should take them up on their offer? They also said I could use it
for any projects I wanted because it's just sitting around doing nothing.

Nice computer. However, POV doesn't support multithreading nor is their a
current version of PVpov that could be run in parallel.
At least you could run a few POV tasks 'simultaneously', all working on
different renders ... assuming their system isn't I/O limited.

Last I saw PVMPov was not updated to 3.1g. Also, the conversion of megapov
to a 'sortof' pvmpov was still in the early beta stages.
