It depends on the resolution of your terrains and the textures on your poser figure as well. If you can e-mail me your scene I can try to find out how to speed up rendering.(I have got a lot of experience with that because I used to render scenes on a 300MHz with 32MB Ram at 66MHz) Also I might have a faster computer and be able to render the scene faster. You said that the terrains etc fill half the image. You said the image was at 7% this implies that there is not even any water-terrains/splashes at the point where your computer is rendering. Am I correct? So are you rendering at premium? or do you use volumetric sky?
