With BVH [10 bounces, 12 threads]: 7.377 seconds to calculate the BVH and 0.353 seconds to render the scene. Interestingly, this scene consistently takes much longer to calculate the BVH compared to my other scene, which has the same teapot as well as an additional object, the hexagon floor tiles. Without BVH [10 bounces, 12 threads]: 25.750 seconds to render the scene.
