Also, I'm not sure about these things yet. It must be noted that rendering is clientside. I've not tested fully, but I suspect the render cost would be lower with reducing some graphical settings. And I'm not sure it's really possible for the server to be aware of, or interface with such values, as they should, theoretically, be different depending on your settings, and calculated individually on the client end.
