I played a bit with my meshed-spheres and another clutter-macro ...
The level-of-detail works quite well, as is lowers the number of triangles
for smaller spheres... But: I should increase the bias of this value, what
would lead to a very huge mesh ...
The memoryusage before tracing was already 500+MB.... raising
level-of-detail by one would need at least 4 times as much memory...
The image was rendered at 1280x960 and afterwards downscaled ...
Comments ?
BTW: Can someone explain the time-discrepancy (marked in the screenshot) ?
Are there multiple clocks used in POVwindows ?

It looks like focal blur in the center of the image, but I can't tell
if it's just an illusion or not.
Real nice snowballs, but with memory usage like that I don't think
I'll be using that method:-)

You using the 3.5 betas?

What you are seeing is probably the integrated focal blur of the
JPEG-algorithm ;)
I didn't use fb in POV ... but this jpeg is really missing a lot of details
...
In the original render-output, you'll see in the front sphere that it's a
mesh, because there are still to big triangles ...
so I think this is anothere try, that has failed ...

Then my guess is bug. Do you have beta 7?

Yes.
In fact, since you are using this on Windows NT, there are three clocks used
to tell how long the render takes.
1) The "Total Time" in the render statistics: This is the time from the
instant POV-Ray starts parsing, to the instant POV-Ray finishes calculating
the last pixel.
2) The CPU time used: This is the actual number of seconds that the CPU
spent rendering the scene.
3) The time at the bottom of the POV-Ray window: This is the time elapsed
between when you clicked on the "Render" button, and when the renderer
finished execution and exited.

I assume that 25h 11m 32s is the time spent *in* POV-Ray,
and 25h 20m 47s is the time according to the system clock,
during which your machine wasted 9m 15s doing things other
than tracing rays.
