Just for kicks, I've now turned that down to 1000 as a test. The same frame that rendered at about 8 ...

Just to continue the test I dropped in a 3+ million poly zbrush mesh, and set an emitter to spew glass teapots in front of it. Render time was 8 minutes per frame. Likely ...

I have a very simple scene that has a plane, a couple teapots and an OctaneDayLight. The meshes have simple diffuse and specular materials with nothing changed but the color.
