I will try, i am still learning.

Yes, I was thinking about this, and downloaded some of them. But I still
don't
know how exactly to use sky_sphere with  image-maps properly.

The photons create the caustics for each glass object. I have to limit the
total number of photons to speed up rendering. With no photons the rendering
time is an order of magnitude smaller.

No, i will try.

The photons increase the rendering times. Probably if I play with parameters
it will speed up.
