If you use only the cpu the rendering is more slow.

In thi case is importan a fast cpu. in my test the cpu is old and not very fast. AMD 8350 FX
Today there are more fast Cpu on the market AMD 1800 X etc.

This option is exposed in the 3ds Max UI now. Just use the latest NVIDIA Mental Ray plugin you can download here in the forum for free.

I find the script for this.
renderers.current.IndirectDiffuseEnabled = false
