Kerkythea 32 bit under 20 min to finish.
Twilight same as Kerky.
Try Kerkythea Echo Boost, it will go even faster than Twilight! And if you run on 64bit, you will get much more speed. Make a test and come with the results !
The Intel Embree kernel is faster than all of them and runs only on the CPU. It renders the Imperial Crown in about 20 secs.
Give any modern CPU based renderer a four socket workstation (four independent xeon CPUs, 40 physical cores) , that was used in my understanding in said Embree demo, and you will get a pretty fast renderer. Anyhow Embree is a nice demonstration about how CPU (=intel) based renderer can compete against GPU (=nividia) 😆
And it was not 20 sec, if you where referring the intel video, "a prefect image takes about a minute to compute". No doubt Embree is a impressive collection of ray tracing kernels.
