another tip. if your hardware can handle it, if you're using GPU or Optix rendering, larger bucket sizes will render faster. I used your settings but changed the bucket size to 1024 and it cut the Optix render time in half. As long as you have the  Vram to handle the size of your scene, you could try that too.
