Render initial Frame takes ages

[k-arts]

Just curious what it might be. When submitting the renderjob through backburner, the first frame of an animation takes ages.The following frames go as planed. A fix would be to store the irr maps locally on c:\. The Linux server that stores the maps and irr maps is connected with gigabit. While loading the scene i tested the bandwidth, and grabbed the irr through the explorer. Speed was 122mb/sec. Is somewhat/thing limiting the bandwidth during ini?

I think the problem is the reading of the irradiance map - we do this in very small chunks, which might be a problem for the network. It is on the "to do" list to optimize this.
