I guess I'm trying to pre-calc scale-ability.

You just divide the length of time it takes to render an image on one computer by the number of computers (assuming they are all the same spec in 100% perfect bandwidth etc).

If the machines are 33% faster than yours, divide the time by {1.33 x No of PCs}.

If the machines are 33% slower than yours, divide the time by {0.66 x No of PCs}.
