Unhappy VRay Image - 47 Hours to Render? H-E-L-P

Ok. I "know" I am douing something wrong here.

Basic White Room
6 Chrome Chairs
1 Chrome Table with Glass Top
Mirror - 1/3 of rear wall

3400 x 2200 rendering

47 hours to complete? + it took 4.5 hours to solve! (E6600 DualCore with 3.0Gb RAM)

I have 2 vray portals, 2 vray plane lights and 6 vray IES spots (note: no Vray Sun)

Is this too many lights?
I have the settings set as low as possible, without making the image too noisy.

I have searched and searched with little help. Is interior lighting without Sun/Sky the holy grail of Vray? (meaning: only a few know how to do this and are unwilling to share?)

Sorry for the lengthy question on a Sunday...but my head hurts, and I want to lie down

Thanks
