It takes only 23 seconds for scene initialization and then bucket rendering starts...

and it takes 5h to get to 0%

00:00:23  2718MB         |  starting 8 bucket workers of size 64x64 ...
00:00:27  4370MB         |   [skydome_light] /SkyDoom: 2048x2048 importance map done in 0:02.53, average energy 0.571150

Sampling settings don't seem too high.

You are trying to use adaptive sampling? Turn that off, just to confirm that even with AA=2 it still takes forever

Ignore textures, shaders, disp, and subdiv. Still slow?
