I'm running a rendering set at 2am for exterior, artificial lights only so I can see some interior spaces lit up.  I've tried hiding all lights except the ones I need for this rendering,  but when I hit "render" the progress box still says I'm rendering 59 lights and the rendering's just too slow.  There should only be 25 lights or so in the the rendering.  I've tried selecting and hiding them, and I've tried turning them off in the "artificial lights" section of the render dialog box.  When I select all objects visible in the 3d view, then filter out all but the lights, it shows that I only have the lights I want present.  But the render progress bar still says 59 lights being rendered.  Rendering quality is set to high, printer, 150dpi.  1360 x 1500 pixels.  V. 2011.   If I go any lower I'm going to lose too much quality.  Thx.
