Re: Dell workstation is BALLS-slow!
Just for kicks, see if that particular machine has the Bitmap Pager set in Max. if it does, remove all of the relevant lines in the 3dsmax.ini file and try another render. You have no idea how many times the Bitmap Pager has cropped up as the cause of VRay rendering slowdowns in my office. It won't make up for the inherent lacklustre performance of the 50xx series, but it may resolve issues in some of your particular scenes.
