  30. I guess you may have missed it, but Mark Thompson addressed that 
  31. problem.  IF you have the ram: to render you scene in a single pass, 
  32. rather than in segments of four or more...., you will see very little 
  33. time difference in time when rendering.  However, if you cannot render in 
  34. one pass, the program then has to recalculate for FR with each segment pass.
