Things that can affect it, with some wild estimates on how it reduces the 800kh:
- Processors are 10-100 times faster. Divide by 100ish.
- A common laptop CPU has 16 cores. Divide by 16.
- GPUs and CPUs have more and faster math operations for numbers. Divide by 10.
- RAM speeds and processor cache lines are larger and faster. Divide by 10.
- Modern processors have more and stronger SIMD instructions. Divide by 10.
- Ray tracing algorithms may be replaced with more efficient ones. Divide by 2.
That brings it down to 3-4 hours I think, which can be brought to realtime by tweaking resolution.
So it looks plausible!
