Good to see you got it working!
Well.. we're back to the "i just don't know what the hell I'm doing wrong" stage. Only the one mesh light, everything hidden that isn't in the frame, no pure whites in the diffuse, no crazy shaders or anything like that, nothing hinky on any of the surfaces, rendering in a box, and I'm back to only 14k samples/sec. I let it run all night while I was in bed and woke up to only 114 passes. This is pretty discouraging :sad:
If you're in the mood to see some pure render speed, pull out the box and mesh light, (or uncheck it in the light tab if you want to use it later as a fill), then in the ibl tab, just check mark it. You don't necessarily need an IBL file to make it work, but it does look nice.
This is what I use for my trial renders and get around 770Ks/s, which is closing in on GPU speed.
Just your figure, whatever clothing she/he/it is wearing, and the IBL channel checked. You might want to raise the gain also, between 4-6.0.
If that doesn't net you a fast render, you might want to give it a kick. (kidding!)
