Rendering/slow

i’ve modelled a scene, but it keeps taking forever to render; i just get a slither down the bottom of the screen in 10 minutes. How do i fix this?

also, i’ve been working on some triffid fanart using subsurf but everything is gowing sooooooo slooooowly, i was wondering if anyone could tell me if i was doing something wrong and if any plugins ect would fix it up?

The speed of a render depends on many factors like size of scene, size of render, type of materials with reflections and stuff, raytracing, OSA… but mainly your computer specs… you are not clear on any of this so I can’t tell why it is so slow for you… but if you are using a 100 mhz cpu I suggest you to plugin a new processor… :wink:
