Chris is correct, LEMs do not noticeably add any rendering time to unbiased Easy 09 (MLT) or Easy 10 (MLT/BiPT) render settings... they will increase render times after you reach hundreds of lights... but this is the case as well with point or spot lights in Easy 09 and 10.

One more thought about Interior tone mapping, interior lighting with light through a window. #lightthroughwindow #interiortonemapping

Most of the light on the walls and furniture is coming from a reflection of this sunlight or the diffuse light provided by the window itself. Notice the red colour on the far wall, which is probably a reflection from the curtains. Also note the high contrast that the sunlight creates, the highlight areas are very bright.
