too bad!  In any case, it's a simple scene.  Can't Moray just export the pov
scene and you render that with 3.7?  With your i7, that alone should mean you'd
render it 8x faster at minimum.

Alas, I don't have an i7 yet.  That by itself should drop my render 
times from 3.5 days to about 3 hours...  T_T

oh, I misread it then.  But no, not likely it'd do that without migrating to
multiprocessing 3.7 either.
