Rendering depends on a lot of factors. Take a look at the link attached. This rendered in Vue 4. Setting broadcast 800x600, took about 7mins to render on my AMD XP2400 512MbRam Radeon 9600 Pro 256Mb. There's one higher setting you can use, ultra, so broadcast is pretty good. The scene has one sun and 3 lights in it. Yesterday, my copy of Vue 5 arrived. I've took the same scene and rendered in Radiosity and later with HDRI settings. Of course the rendering times will become much longer now. With Radiosity enables it took about 20 mins to render, with HDRI enabled around 50mins. Again using broadcast, so the output quality is excellent then. So rendering all depends on the setting you use and need. Most of my outdoor images hardly ever take 20mins, only the ones where I do use a lot of Poser characters (more then 15). Also the less stuff you have running in the background, the faster Vue will render. Indoor scenes take a bit longer, due to more use of lights and volumetrics at times. I'm considering adding more RAM now (especially with Vue 5), to speed up things a bit. The only thing I can really compare to is Bryce 5 and I know that my scenes took a lot longer to render in Bryce then they do in Vue.
