And this one uses real caustics and P5 dynamic hair (along with particles). The only postwork was sharpening. Rendered with one single direct light and GI on medium settings, using Photon mapping for the direct light.

Rendertime was just over 3 hours at an original render size of 800x600, due mostly to the dynamic hair and caustics. The particles were refractive as well, and had added to the rendertime too.

Does anyone know if Shade allows you to fiddle with the Interpolation samples or subdivisions of your photon map or GI settings? This could assist in getting better quality and less render time. The more options you have in tweeking the GI, the better. Things like "search distance", "max bounces", and "retrace threshold/bounces" can help give you a good tradeoff between quality/speed.
