Echo Boost v2.5.1

It could be 2x faster (in some cases) if you fixed the


ANOTHER TEST:
Chair Loft test - 06 - PMFG Med+AA - KT standard render preset
800x449 res - 8 threads 3.62Ghz vista 64bit o.s.

Echo 08 - 5m03s
boost32 - 4m30s 10.9% faster
boost64 - 4m16s 15.5% faster <why so conistently faster than 64 bit?

quality of render results for each was identical. renders for each were not identical, difference was in ray shooting and soft shadow noise.

retesting for teapot museum scene.
32 showing boost now in 8 threads. don't know what the problem was before -maybe I had threads set wrong or something.
But I haven't run into the problem again since then. So hopefully it was a one-off, and just a stupid user error.

8threads, vista 64bit os, 640x480 res
Echo08 - 52s
Boost32 - 41s 78%
Boost64 - 40s 76%

(you don't need to see the images, same as before, all very similar.)
