I have both Vue5 Infinite, Bryce5.5, and Carrara5 Pro. I really don't miss the slow updating of Vue or Bryce. Carrara's rendering engine is so much faster than either of those applications that a 640x480 render-room render or a plop render works fine.

The shear quality of Eovia development work is so superior to e-on, that I use V5I less and less. I have a big bit-bucket of Vue issues!
