The MSamples/sec is not a good guide to how fast the render is running. The speed the render cleans up is a better indicator. I find PT to be a bit more realistic that DL, but there are some artists here who get pretty incredible results with DL, so go with whatever works for you.

you do see a difference in scenes with mostly indirect light (indoors, studio ... )
