yes, it is going good now.

the current amount is enough to not be a bottleneck in our overall current 
workflow, i.e. the farm renders as quickly as the guys can prepare final 
shots, but there has been talks about re-rendering .. perhaps even the whole 
movie, after doing all the final tweaks (perhaps even in the renderer code 
still..)

with the 60 nodes i think rendering the whole movie would take several days - 
with 200 it might happen fully in one day even :o

so there is basically no limit to what would be nice to have for us, but 
things are going ok now with the current setup just fine,

thanks for asking.
