Man is that slow!

I don't think I can simplify my lighting setup. I only have the neccessary
number of light sources to match the locations in the real world scene. As
for no radiosity, for the flouro lights that's a no-can-do.

Only if you have a second computer to handle the slow rendering.

As for test renders, hours or days is far too long. For test renders, 10
minutes is getting too slow, I'd definatly prefer 30 second test renders.

I should probably stop grumbling and go and read a different thread now.
