It's really nice work-- but obviously may not be practical for you.  If you get a chance, try the Hybrid engine and see if it does any better.

Thank roy,i will give it another run on the Hybrid and we can compare.

Roy, i have run the same image on HYBRID for 2hours and 40 min =295 pass

you can see from the image the Hybrid render engin strugles with coloured red glass and the the painting on the right.Is there a reason to why the image on the TV set is lighter when you path tracer than Hybrid?

I'd have to look at the material to be sure.  I wonder if I implemented self luminance in that engine? (I think so, but I'll check.)

I bet the red glass is related to the alpha transparency issue as well.  You can tag the object as "No Alpha Transparency" and see if that makes a difference.

It's also pretty hard to compare the engines unless your scene is identical.  The exterior stuff present in the first example can greatly alter the light paths in the rendering.
