rendering in iray slow

Hi everyone.
I have a beast of a machine(desktop, 64gb ram, RTX2080TI), which usually means its lightning fast on arnold or redshift in maya, but using Iray inside daz studio..its taking forever to render a simple scene(2 very simple characters, no clothes, no background) and its taking like 30 minutes. I am not sure whats going on, not even if my gpu is being used. Anyone has any ideas on whats going on?
Alternatively, I was trying to export my characters from DAZ using FBX to maya, trying to render them there, but my characters (they have animation) "explode" limbs become "monstrous like" very scary stuff...
if anyone can share their thoughts on how to solve either one of them much appreciated.

Animations do take a long time to render.
To find out if your GPU is being used, open Task Manager->Performance->GPU # (0 if you only have one). Now pick one of the graphs and click the title, a drop down will appear, select CUDA or Compute_1. Run a render. If the CUDA graph shows heavy activity then your card is doing the render.
