Well, in the next build, VRay will be able to compute a separate irradiance map for each bucket. This will allow you to render a region without computing the map for the whole image. It will also allow you to use distributed rendering with irradiance maps more efficiently, since there will be no need for each machine to compute the whole imap. It also saves memory when rendering large images...
........
The next build is coming in a few days. There were some major additions (instance rendering, global photon maps, bucketed irradiance maps, new distributed rendering) so it will take a little time to make sure everything is working properly.
Best regards,
Vlado
