Here the times for the same little scene:
V3.7
Render Time:
  Photon Time:      No photons
  Radiosity Time:   No radiosity
  Trace Time:       0 hours  0 minutes  5 seconds (5.211 seconds)
              using 2 thread(s) with 9.749 CPU-seconds total


V3.6
Total Scene Processing Times
  Parse Time:    0 hours  0 minutes  0 seconds (0 seconds)
  Photon Time:   0 hours  0 minutes  0 seconds (0 seconds)
  Render Time:   0 hours  0 minutes  8 seconds (8 seconds)
  Total Time:    0 hours  0 minutes  8 seconds (8 seconds)
CPU time used: kernel 1.15 seconds, user 7.02 seconds, total 8.17 seconds
Render averaged 37580.50 PPS over 307200 pixels

In this simple scene you can see that the rendering is slower with v3.7 (9.749
vs 8.17). If I use a big scene the difference increase.
The scene file used is the same.
I hope you have enough informations to understand my problem.
