Although mental ray is more suitable for layering passes as for beauty shots, here a stress test with Max 2011 and mental ray 3.8 with 16 million polys, Hair and ctrl.ghost shader with progressive rendering and image based Lightning. Except the sheets in the leaves have all the bumps instead Materials a mr shader with hand-painted displacements (edge length 0.5 px). The HDRI (a little bit edited) is from http://www.openfootage.net.
Cat rigged with CAT Hair and grass with mr prim, Ivy with Ivy, procedurally stones, flowers with PFlow, Rendering in 1:30, Intel Q9550/8GB, 32 bit float, OpenEXR, and CC in FullHD Nuke.
Unfortunately, it is still not possible to use FastSSS with photometric lights, which have therefore not used and illuminated normally. The use of Geometryshaderns for hair I've left out due to many problems with version mr.
