Odd, pjz.

Does it literally die or is it just rendering very slow?

All my renders have been a LOT faster than they ever were in P6. I've made my own render settings, more or less based on the ones I used for P6 (can't quite use those as the texture size isn't there and the Texture Filtering is now per texture) and the new Irradiance slider doesn't have a P6 counterpart.

I would suggest looking in the manual and see which setting/slider does what and then set them to whatever is suitable for your system. The auto setting usually suck IMO.
