SUMMARY
=======
 
For the following reasons, the default setting for Recursive Sampling is
"On":
 
 - Recursive sampling provides the best performance when the scanline
   algorithm drives primary rays.
 
 - Recursive sampling is automatically disabled with contour rendering and
   raytraced motion blur.
