Subject : what happens between starting a render and xsi starts to render :)

Hello,

i got this kinda complex model imported into xsi from microstation.
its a chemical plant and have hundreds of pipes, valves and levers.
2.5million faces not much objects though, maybe 100 spread over 15
models.

each time i start a render it takes about 5 minutes (1 cpu is busy)
before anything hapens. not even a log messages appears. just
everything is still when i press preview, render or render region.

when i render a sequence of pics this lag only happens at the first
frame. each successive frame starts rendering instantly after the
previous one is finished.

what xsi doe in that time? and can it be accelerated?
  

ciao
franky
