Re: Taking too much time to render. Can someone help please?
The current renderers (SunFlow & YafaRay) use the CPU for rendering, not the GPU so it's no surpise that the GPU load is low.
What you can try is to increase the amount of memory Sweet Home 3D is allowed to use. This might avoid some swapping and should increase the overall speed.
How-to is described here: http://www.sweethome3d.com/faq.jsp#increaseMaxMemory

The time needed to render mainly depends on the complexity of what you render. A tree takes a lot longer than a simple box. Textures take more time than colors. If you can simplify the scene you want to render this should help more than anything else you can do.
