Tolerable render times for Archviz?

[crazy homeless guy]

I can render 6k black boxes in 3 minutes.

Hey Morne

Have you got static geometry set on your vraydisplacement modifier? It will give you a speed boost.

Not sure in the scene I sent to Chaos, but I do have it with my latest one which is very similar to that one. Will let you know next week how it goes with the 4K render

Seems to be less the amount of subdivision morne, more that the lines of edges in your base mesh aren't running perfectly horizontally so when the mesh subdivides and displaces, it's at a tiny angle to the lines you're displacing with so the pixels of the displacement map are crossing over lines of edges, hence the breakup.
