Softimage and Maxwell is great with Fire. No fooling around or
tweaking things outside the software. I hope that Next Limit will add
the GPU processing and perhaps it will be as fast as Octane.

Here's the classroom scene I used. It's not mine, I think it was created
by Alex Sandri. I can do an Arnold test as well tomorrow, but I suspect
it will take muuucho longer to get this quality without a lot of optimizing.
