Why small emiters take to long to render?

i really really like this octane forum
there is always someone to help... thx.

i downloaded the last release candidate version (2.57) and the problem with the diferent size emiters is solved with the "sampling_rate" parameter..

sampling_rate = 1 for big emiters
sampling_rate = 600 for small emiters (im not really sure about this value, i just used that number because the size diference of the emiters is 600x in area)
i think with this change the render time will lower a lot. i will render to see.

Yes it works this image is 3 times less noisy than before with the 2.52 version of octane, i adjusted the "sampling_rate" parameter of the small emiters and thats it.
