Make all your scene materials glossy - the ones you don't want shiny knock down the specular and up the roughness. This seems to get rid of the fireflies - the only diffuse mats in the scene should be blackbody emitters - I am getting acceptable results and times this way with Octane. Also, for extra speed and cleanup , stay on directlight but go down to the direct light tab and change GI-mode to diffuse (this gives better much GI (looks very like pathtracing actually) but cleans up much quicker in max.
Hope that helps.

Another small bug I have noticed:
When using Octane standalone after using Octane for max, standalone can't remember 'Recent Files'... but most important forgets the Settings!!!

time to remind about an old bug (at least since 2.52): if pathnames contain blanks or special characters, octane won't find image maps while loading an .ocs/.ocm (windows)...
