Render time and maxwell bench problem#18359

Configuration:
Pentium 4 - 1.5 Ghz
512 MB DDR 3200
SuSe Linux 9.2

Render: skydome.mxs as posted by Andronikos - actual render time is 3h and 36m.

Problem: I am getting unexpected results in the terminal and maxwell.log

In the terminal I get the following:

------------------------------------------------------
MAXWELL RENDER (M~R) version 1_1_33_0001_alpha_
MAXWELL Console Application version 1_0_1_0001_alpha
