Default Re: reflections are killing rendering time

vray is super slow in comparison to Mental Ray.
for exterior scenes with buildings that have reflective windows , Mental Ray is very fast , with Vray I am waiting and waiting, I reduced the settings but it is too slow.
I thought I would not miss Mental Ray but MR is a pretty powerful program, I can't get used to Vray, I got decent stuff done with Mental Ray, less settings, more efficient.
If anyone knows how to get a short render time please let me know.
I reduced the subdiv, refl. depth, it is still too slow.
