Er yeah but my computer is in my bedroom, and its an AMD TBird, yes it has
one hell of a fan and too top it off, my GFx card likes to overheat every so
often so I leave the lid of making it even more delightful.
A bit of insomnia doesn't help either :)

That's pretty close to the reason that I don't leave my machine on
overnight. Without the overheating graphics card bit or the insomnia
bit.
I find it annoying to sleep with my head about five feet from a couple of
computer fans.
Bye for now,
Jamie.

Same here, except in my case it's four feet. Additionally, if the hard disk
spins down, it sounds like a jet airplane taking off when it starts up
again.

What code needs adding to allow that?
I assume save_file the first time and load_file when the render is
continued. Anything else?
I really want to render a bigger version of a scene I've got with radiosity,
but I estimate rendering time of over 50 hours

An iMac has no fan at all and they don't overhead either...

Yeah, that should do the trick. The other radiosity settings (including
pretrace_start & pretrace_end) should stay the same for best results.

Yes, an iMac runs POV, ya schmucks.
It would run Moray if the the coders weren't too lazy or too incompetent
to write a Mac version.
