I did this image a few years ago. I don't remember the exact numbers as to
render time and all that, but it took many hours to finish.
This time around I raised photon_count to 64e6 (8000^2) (new hardware)
rendered it at 4000 x 2250, applied 5p Gaussian blur and scaled it down to
800 x 450.
Render Time:
Photon Time: 1 hours 9 minutes 41 seconds (4181.580 seconds)
using 11 thread(s) with 4853.194 CPU-seconds total
Radiosity Time: No radiosity
Trace Time: 5 hours 45 minutes 46 seconds (20746.923 seconds)
using 8 thread(s) with 22676.730 CPU-seconds total
Most of the trace time was spend waiting for swap.
