What really shocked me was the amount of time it took to render.  At 42 hours,
it's easily, and by far, the longest render I've ever done.  I'm at a loss as
to why, for such a simple scene with no media, no refraction, and no
dispersion.  It uses radiosity, focal blur, and an area light, but based on
past experience, I didn't expect them to slow the render by 3000x! (The render
time was only 50 seconds otherwise.)

I shudder to think how much time it will take to render when it is done.
