It looks good, especially the mortar but 22 minutes for such a small piece
doesn't seem very practical.
Is it possible to use this in larger objects?

Brick needs to project farther out of the mortar. The brick looks like it
is flush with the mortar.

That's just the orthographic camera in conjunction with a shadowless light
(the later adds more to the effect). In deed I had to reduce the distance
when I switched the shadows on.

Thanks! Rendertime got even worth when changed some things (like some more
warps to distort the granite-bumps a bit oh, and when I switched the shadows
on, that took also it's time). I had once an hour for this piece of masonry
(without anti-aliasing that is). But I speeded things up a bit afterwards
and think the rendertime is quite okay. Although it's just one small piece
it covers most of the 640x480 pixels.
I'm using it now as part of another object and rendertimes are not that bad,
as it covers only part of the image (some 14 min for the whole scene).
Things slow down when it comes to the bricks, but I'm already used to it -
the sign in my last scene rendered for a full night.
