Long simulation time : Fully glazed room with a large number of glazing

Hello everyone,

I'm modeling a building in which there is a fully glazed room with a large number of glazing. This room makes the simulation time a lot longer. When I run a simulation without this glazed room the simulation takes 2h but when I add this room the simulation takes 17 hours, and when I add Blinds controlled by solar radiation on each window the simulation doesn't stop and remains at the step "Warming up" without ever stopping.

I'm looking for a solution that would make the simulation faster without simplifying the geometry.
