This was done on a render pass method. each of the pass had a different render time. As i could remember, the fastest was the shadow pass, under 4 minutes.
but the longest was the Ambient Occlusion took nearly 23hours.
the resolution i rendered was 2K wide.
The spec on my machine while building this was Dual Opteron 64 processors, 4Gigs of ECC Reg Ram 6600GT NVidia and aroun 1TB of HD.
