Thanks Olve... As I expected, the render times remain too high when rendering with the so called 'unbiased' methods.

A big problem with those methods is that despite their having very realistic results they do not give the opportunity to experiment, to see easily the render results so as to make the proper tweakings in the scene's settings.

Anyway, despite this difficulty your scenes are very balanced as to their lighting, it is evident that in the case you buy a powerful new computer, you will have the opportunity to gain deep expertise as to the use of such methods.

Keep the good work... : - )

Of course, i tried using Photon mapping with self settings.
But when it took 5h and it was rendered 1/3 picture, I said rather try MLT.
It is true that even after 10 hours was in the image noise. But it can be reduce using Gimp.
Difference of render time I can confirm in Photon Mapping and MLT too.

I was about to suggest you something, but after have done some tests before that I give up. I added my observations in the Render Tips for Kerkythea. (link)
