Build lightning only takes forever

i have got it once as well. the first 0 to 1 percent takes like a minute but when it starts it takes off like crazy. so then from 1 to 100 gets done in 30 seconds. and i gotta say. the trees from the open world demo are quite detailed and therefore will be more difficult for your pc to process. also make sure that you are not building lighting at a too high preset.
