Render time on a single machine is around 15-20 minutes, you’re correct. No GI but physical render with ambient occlusion.
Had a chat with a maxon technician who told me that, regarding the scene, there’s not much room for improvement. Scene and settings would be okay and regarding objects and numer of frames that’s just how long it takes. Was hoping for a bottleneck within my file.
Thank you anyways! Really appreaciated.
