The Fry render does have more detail to it.
Was a catmull clark AA setting used for that render?

90% of the noise in fry comes from the bouncing sun, where's sun in the indigo render ?
you gotta compare solid color env with mesh light or matching sun position.

where's sun in the indigo render ?

I believe it's in the very foreground (left).

FPRIME is the BEST KILLER of NOISE

5 minutes for render. There are problem whith normals be caurse i had wrong export from maya to lw. But as you see noise level is the best. Fprime very good work whith 4 cores

it seems your materials in Fry are not diffuse, see attached image!

A comparison using meshlight would be really great!

..also, i'd take alook at the white balance parameter, setting it to C, or to a warmer one. From the comparison you've posted, Indigo's output seems..cold, whereas the fry image looks warm.

I must be sincere: if i didn't know the potential of indigo, between the two pictures i'd pick the fry one, just because of the warmness of the scene, that's obviously corrupted by the slight different sun parameters, as CTZn noticed.

So +1 about re-doing the render, even half size, adjusting the sun position and choosing a different white point.

Keep it on: interesting topic.

The shots aren't comparable in setup.
In my experience, I own a copy of Fry and use it regularly, Indigo's color tones is often more vibrant and has real good color bleeding.

If there wasn't the lack of multilight and sun/sky seperation in Indigo, I would use it for all the work.

The promised Maxwell sky looks pretty awesome though
