Mediamajic. More follow up tests on your file.

1.Your file as is--render firsttime frame 9min41secs
2.Delete those two SurfaceReplicator Converted(whatever they are for?)
render time 5min33secs
3.In the Replicator, unclick *align to normal (should have been anyway)
render time 5min11secs
4.In the Render room reset anti aliasing to fast.
render time 1min58secs.
5.Reset Object Accuracy and Shadow Accuracy to default.
Let you try out!

If other settings in the Render Room were set back to default I think you would have little problem. (Did you expect to see some visual gains by fiddling with those render settings? Can't see that you would on your particular exercise anyway.)

As a basic rule I suggest you stick to default settings unless you can prove a worthwhile visual improvement .
