Remember that radiosity is how light reflects off other objects in a scene. Because every object in the scene is affected, even if you play with the settings it will take a while to render (Longer than raytraces). For faster renderings you can fudge radiosity with colored lights (Especially in earlier versions of 3dsmax). The effect is still convincing, but radiosity is an extremely realistic effect.
