[SOLVED] Production VS Draft

Testing a "difficult" scene (refrigerator interior, all white (85%) + some translucent plastic and glass), draft takes longer to clear and makes fireflies happy :)
Is this "proper" behavior or am i missing some settings?

FIRE will be slower with anything involving SSS, and also caustics, either reflected or refracted. It is more efficient (faster) than the production renderer with simpler diffuse materials. Those fireflies will eventually clear but much slower than the production renderer in more complex lighting situations, or with materials that create "difficult" lighting.

Oh, and I didn't realize this can indeed be confusing for new users :) Yes, Draft = FIRE. It would make sense I think to rename "Draft".
