Then it is possible that the program did not freeze but was only working very slowly.  I have had some serious slowdowns with Poser when using reflections.  You have to watch out for too many interreflections.  I tried a scene with three reflective and refractive cylinders, several other reflective surfaces and four lights with one casting shadows.  The shadow map took over eight hours to be prepared (over night).  But then ther whole rendering process ran so slow that I did interrupt it and altered the composition.

Poser does not seem to have very good optimizing code such as bounding blocks or slabs etc.
