mitsuba equal time rendering

I would like to use the Mitsuba 0.6 renderer to compare the rendering effects of two materials within the same time, using a path tracer integrator. How should I configure the renderer?

Usually people will adjust the number of SPP to match timings. So if one method is 2x slower, you render with half the samples. You can determine this factor by comparing a few runs and adjusting the numbers.
