Actually it was a 1.2gig amd before renaming that was about equivalent to a 1.6gig or 1.7. Got a 2.533 gig p4, would have expected 50-55% increase. But my old render took 16 hours on the 1.2 gig and on the new processor 8-9 hours. Its the transparent 1-20 layer thick glass thats doing me in... but once rendered, it gives a xray look as each layer adds to the 90% transparency to make it darker in the middle.
