I optimized my lightmapper by about 400% from just the unoptimized Blitz picking commands.
Self-shadowing terrain is by far the slowest step. I have a 32,000 poly terrain, split into 16 sectors, and it takes maybe four or five minutes to light with two directional lights. Anyone have experience writing optimized terrain shading? It seems like the unique nature of terrain meshes could be taken advantage of to speed this up.
