[Bf-committers] Render time doubled from 2.41 to current CVS version when using raytracing?

[Ton Roosendaal]

Hi Stephane,

The only reason I can think of is that raytracing uses diferent options  
now... however, a testing file rendering in 30 minutes isn't very  
useful for test.
You can help me by testing different simple setups and evaluate which  
of the features causes the longer render time.

Thanks,

-Ton-
