Wow. That's quite a complex scene. Many objects, each with their own level of intricacy. My guess is that if you still didn't see it going past a certain point after a couple hours of rendering, you may need to boost the system's RAM another 24 meg or so. I don't know how much you carry in there now, but I'm sure a render of that kind of complexity (i.e., lots of refractions and transparencies) will need a substancial amount if you plan to do a large render. The image looks great though. Good work! The only thing I would suggest is to make the girl a little bigger... those wine bottles behind her look like 3 gallon juggs compared to her proportions! ;-))
