Single core or dual core processor?
Single core processors take a long time with HDRI lighting because they can't use multiple threads.
My system stats:
PC Pentium 4 - 3.0 Ghz Single Core Processor
2 Gigs DDR2 PC 3200 Ram, 800 FSB
2 350 Gig IDE Internal Hard Drives
2 300 Gig SATA Internal Hard Drives
2 250 Gig IDE External Hard Drives on USB 2.0
Even with the 2 gigs of DDR2, HDRI takes a while.
