Quote - Do extra lights increase render times more so than objects? I am sort of assuming that they do, since Poser would need to make ray trace and IDL calculations for every light wouldn't it?
Lighting is a major contributor if the scene is saturated with them. Other culprits are hires textures, high polycount models, displacement maps, transparency maps, extremely high render values, etc.
