I don't want to sound rude, but this isn't the group you are looking for.
For newbie questions, please use povray.newusers. If you want to post a
scene, please use povray.binaries.scene-files or povray.text.scene-files.
Please read the FAQ, too.

Anyway, the "problems" with your scene:

-"Complex" objects
-Lots of reflective surfaces
-Radiosity
-Area lights

Any of these makes a scene render slow. If you combine two of these, your
render will be somewhere between very slow and extremely slow. If you
combine more than two, you are probably hopeless.

(This might be a case of RTFM as well, I'm pretty sure that the docs have
some info on how these functions affect render time.)
