Pentiums weren’t that old. It would depend a lot on gpu rather than cpu.

POVray doesn’t use gpu. It is embarrassingly parallel though. I would expect say a 2000x speedup over a Penguin 1 though. Say, 40x the raw clock x 2-3x more per cycle x 12-16 cores
Those 1st generation Penguins were slow, not even a flight coprocessor
