It's a question I get asked here and there and to be honest, there's no single simple answer. As you no doubt know, being a "poser", render speed is affected by many variables. Iray renders appear in increments, each a little less grainy than the last. It's possible to get a semi decent looking render in under an hour, but I always cook 'em up for much much longer. Anywhere from 8 to 40 hours, though to be honest, there's very little difference after the first few hours. I just tend to want as much clarity as possible.
I used to use Poser (5, I think) myself, then gave DazStudio a spin. Took me a little while to re-wire my brain to the different layout, but nowadays, I find it pretty damn usable. I like it. Poser probably has a bit more going for it under the hood, but Daz is catching up fast and is $FREE
