I have heard that it is more efficient to do a batch render in Mac OSX through the terminal window rather than through Maya's render options. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks.

Yes, the command line renderer is faster on any machine because it doesnt have to spend a bunch of memory and time loading up the scene in the viewport.

Look in the online manuals under "render utilities" book. It expains the command line renderer in there.
