Hey there, paul. thanks! I'm looking into your suggestions. a question:
2) Increase Kernel->Caustic Blur (to smooth out Specular and Glossy material highlight noise) ---> how much? I'm set at 0.01 (default) and my renders in octane 7500 samples that take 2 hours looks noisier than a firefly render on 1 minute, at the moment (I'll post a separate topic with images only after I'll try everything that you guys are suggesting, cause I feel that this is a render specs + lighting issue. Octane treat lights differently, it seems.)
