Hi, i ran into a problem, and i can't continue workin on my bike unless i resolve this:

Here is the problem (it happens very seldom):
When i hit render, those numbers and words start coming up on the left bottom of the screen, like it's calculating something. IT takes about 2 min for it to actually start the process, and then it takes forever to render one single square(sampling is set to 0:1).

Anyone has a clue?

Do you have some huge textures in the scene? Motion Blur? That fact that it happens seldomly is rather strange...

It may come down to tweaking your BSP settings. Check out Dave Lajoie's paper for general render optimization...
