Dears, we’re testing here at work the FurryBall more than one year.
The team(furryball) released a benchmark speeds in site.

They even publish the scene for download.

I downloaded the scene and redid it in Corona, with a time render about 15 minutes
without noise.
C this!

There is no caustics…
Coronaut, i render this scenes with the same specificatios of the furry benchmark.
without caustic.
Thanks a lot!
I wonder why people bothers to do such comparisons again and again, when it proves absolutely nothing?
Ok, i didn’t say anything bad.
I know there is no caustics… 
I just want to say for the record… all that GPU based renders… well too bad i am not playing any games as my cards sitting idle most of the time… somehow it reminds me of dry cooker, easy fat away, butt former… they have something and it’s usually not enough and i did end up with one of those GPU renders and just using it for studio shots, it is very fast for exteriors also, but hell it is hard to fit all that assets in memory… Win/lose situation.
Keymaster enters in… 3… 2… 1…
I’m a big fan of GPU render engines, my main render engines are iRay and Arion, in fact the second one is the first one becuase it has a pretty neat production toolset… But… That said…
Men… Corona is the best and faster render engine I faced in my life, it can lack a few features because it’s in development but anyways, so far, is the best render engine, the fastest and the one that gives me the better quality.
BTW it is now my main production render engine of course!
I would like to know the render times for Furryball in that computer, you can’t compare CPU render engines like mental and vray in an OLD fashioned i7-930 with a GPU render engine using a Titan, one of the most modern GPU’s in the market… It’s a bit biased… Also the mental ray one is very bad configured… I’m sure of that…
Ericspl, what is your CPU?
Cheers.
My computer is a I7 3930k,
Render with 15 minutes, 100% without noise, with 4 minutes, the imagem makes better than FurryBall, but a litthe bit noise!

and this page is completely wrong, misleading and, I might say, deliberately wrong, apt to mislead

How can VRay 3.0 render this stupid scene in 50 minutes!!! Please! with BF+BF, I think, can be render in 10-15 minutes at 960x400px!
But, we already talked about that on CGTalk. So, I don’t want to waste me time here, again…
Sorry man, I was too busy headbanging at a Gamma ray gig \m/
About the comparison: just read the thread cecofuli linked. I usually easily keep my cool when it comes to competition. I admire VRay and Arnold for doing the ice breaking in the field, I was pleasantly surprised with redshift (even though I did not see anything recently). I love interactive rendering of Octane in 3dsmax.
But I always fucking lose it when I read anything from furryball. The thrashing of competition. Claiming ugly '90s-style images are photoreal. The “I aint gotta do shit, GPU solves everything for me” attitude. The broken english. The outright lies. Vray taking 50 minutes in this scene is utter bullshit and everyone including the furryball-guys knows it. If I was Chaos Group, I would sue them for false comparative advertising.
I was able to render it in Corona in 5 minutes with better quality than furryball. Of course they refused to put it on the page. Yet they claim they will put any result users send them. Vlado was able to do similar result.
