you should see decent soft shadows and blur around 6 = or so.
DoF renders a bit differently in raytrace comps than they do = in classic 3d and of course DoF is an expensive operation in = 3D.

also it sounds like you dont have an NVidia card with CUDA. with a = decent card what you are trying should render relatively fast.

without one it would be = painful and i wouldnt recommend trying :)
