I should note that I'm keeping a result database for povray (controllable by that guy who created the new binary) at jc-news.com

And I've convinced (I think) a friend to try to do a K7 optimized povray binary. More on that later, I guess.

I should note that povray 3.1 is said to be compiled with a *rather* old compiler that wasn't tuned for performance in the first place. This (the p3_pov binary, at least) isn't optimization -- it's undeoptimization!!! <g>
