Off topic completely… 
your setting for dj and st are a bit odd. maybe interesting to know if there is a reason.
A jitter of 100% will lead to aiming failure? 
and also setting a specular threshold to 100% will mean no specular sampling?
unless there is a reason? new radiance settings meaning different things?
just a curiosity.

And that is exactly the matrix that is taking most of the computational effort (about 4 hours I think - the same model with the 2-phase method takes 5 minutes, glazing is all simple clear glass).
