2017.3.0f3 - Progressive - Baking ETA

With the latest update, the Progressive Baking ETA is all over the place. And baking is taking a very long time. I have a small scene with 2 area lights and several probes. When hitting Bake, the ETA shot up to over 6 hours. It settled back down to 30 min or so within 5 min. At about 3 min it started counting back up to and it’s been at around 10 min for over 20 min. ??

Thankfully I delivered the project yesterday and I have a month until the next presentation. I decided to redo the lighting. It’s been a while since I upgraded so soon after a release, I got what I asked for. I’m going to try clearing the bake data and starting over, I probably should have to start.

After some tests I’ve decided Progressive Lightmapping 2017.3 is a bust! The new functionality has broken the existing, imagine that. I’ve not thoroughly vetted every possible scenario, but the but my previous workflow is broken, so what’s the point. Falling back yop 2017.2.
