I use Vue Pro (multiprocessor enabled) on a dual Xeon 2.66GHz (large L2 cache), 533MHz FSB, 1GB RAM, 3 80GB 7200RPM drives, NVidia GeForceFX 5900 Ultra (256MB and AGP 4x/8x) system running Windows XP Pro SP1. Vue Pro is slow as molasses in renders and even slower in interactive adjustments - it is worthless to do even a mildly complex scene on something of a super computer. Poser 5 isn't much better (but definitely better than Vue Pro). Runtimes definitely effect Poser startup. And more memory will help using large scenes (but don't forget about the memory limitations and leaks of Poser 5).

C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot. C++ makes it harder, but when you do, you blow your whole leg off.
