texture lightning is making my compiling proc

so i tested this texture lightning method in a small map and it went well. i am trying to use it in my big map atm but it raises the BuildVisLeafs 'time to completion' to something around 60000 seconds (~16 hours). without the texture light, the step took no more than five minutes. these are the lights.rad parameters:

Floor039 82 137 228 450
Wall009 100 97 116 900
glass_053 77 112 75 600
~LIGHT5F 255 255 255 1200
concrete_174 255 255 255 1200

i believe the total number of faces using these ^ textures isnt bigger than 150. In addition, they are all quite small - i used them in lamps (except for the concrete one, which is applied to a small wall, a little bigger but not that much i guess).
i am using batch compiler and SHLT 3.9.
so, what could i do to make this faster?

Check this one, that are normally no lighttextures....
Otherwise all walls and floors have texturelightning, then it is no wonder that it takes so much time....

small tipp: create your own texturelight file for a map.
it looks clean and you have a better overview of which texture should be light up and which not.
