On your machine, expect it to parse for app. 5 Minutes.
It has to loop through two loops (x and y) and then again
has to do the mandelbrot loop.
But once it is finished parsing, rendering is quite fast.

  Short? That's a LARGE script! For short script, try this one (which
calculates almost the same mandelbrot made of spheres):

camera{location<-2,3,-2>look_at 0}light_source{<9,9,-9>1}#declare Z=-1#while(Z
<1)#declare X=-2#while(X<1)#declare r=X#declare i=Z#declare n=0#while(n<1&r*r
+i*i<4)#declare a=2*r*i+Z#declare r=r*r-i*i+X#declare i=a#declare n=n+.05#end
sphere{<X,n,Z>.02pigment{rgb<n,n,0>}}#declare X=X+.02#end#declare Z=Z+.02#end

  (It may not work with pov3.1 because of the missing semicolons, or at
least you will get warnings)

  And expect also a long parsing time... :)
