CGTalk - Rendering Question

When rendering a large scene, does the computer calculate all the geometry in the scene or only the geometry in view of the camera? Can you reduce rendering time by deleting geometry that is part of the larger scene but not in view of camera for a particular shot?

I would also love some suggestions for scene optimizing and render time optimizing.

Thanks
