Thank you John.

My major disappointment with Bryce and this render I was limited by my render size to 1280 x 720 for some very odd reason when I tried for a large image size Bryce either froze up or crashed and this is what I noticed I know Bryce is not a 64 bit app but last night doing some renders and I use to Render to disk all the time in my old system and never came across this issue before where the CPU heated up to temps above 80 degrees when I redid the render and used normal rendering mode at a lower resolution than what I was wanting then CPU temps were around high 60's found this to be very odd. I tested my system with renders from Blender and Poser and even Daz Studio rendering out large files and nothing like this happened but both Poser & Daz Studio both are 64 bit. If I can do the same thing in Blender it would be really a boon in the right direction since I do not see Bryce being developed any further than it is currently is.

Windows 10 Pro 64-bit

CPU Intel Core i7 6700K @ 4.00GHz

RAM 64.0GB Dual-Channel @ 1066MHz

Motherboard Gigabyte Technology Co. Ltd. Z170X-Gaming 7

Graphics 6144MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti (Gigabyte)

The fact it hasn't been ported to a 64 bit platform will no doubt have a negative impact on performance in a significant way, considering today's advances in hardware and software rendering. I would say with confidence whatever workflow you have in Bryce can be reproduced in other 3d packages like Blender, and you would probably experience a boost in performance as well.
