This scene took about 5h to render with 3.5
and about 1h15m with 3.1b... I would have thought
that 3.5 would be a lot faster...? The StarGate is a
very nasty CSG (25000 pieces).

Ouch! It's huge! Please next time post jpeg version... ;)
I don't know what to say about render time, but I find this scene really
cool! Looks much like *ancient technology*.

Are the red dots lights?  3.5 seems really slow when there are a lot of
light sources in the scene.
