Well, you understand this says absolutely nothing, do you?  A render can
very well spend 99% of its time rendering the top of an image and spend just
a few seconds for the rest.  It is  not like measuring a few lines will tell
you anything useful how the render times compare.  You need to compare the
same scene with exactly the same settings and let it render from start to
finish.
