It is easyer indeed, however as I know from the top of my head.
Poser still loads all the textures etc, also for the parts you block out of view.

Only place the items in the scene that you want to render in that "layer" to my idea reduces the render time a lot.

I am not a complete idiot, some parts are missing :)
