Well I had a render that took 8 days to run when using Vue 4. Move forward to Vue 6 and the longest were set going overnight and finished when I got home from work so 12-16 hours. So far with Vue 7 my longest render was 2 and a bit hours.
The only preset render settings I use are OpenGL, Preview and Final. Everything else I go to user settings. I normally try rendering very small version with user settings before doing a final render. Then tweak the settings and incrementally increase the image size. Normally I save a lot more time than it takes to optimize my settings when I do the final big render.
