Godot for AA/AAA game development - What's missing?

Mircosoft Game Dev

supports advanced global illumination techniques such as lightmapping (including SH lightmapping), Voxel GI (which is fully real-time) and SDFGI (which is a single click, open world GI solution). The most common types of streaming are: Texture streaming : All textures are loaded in a tiny size by default.

Introducing the new "last minute" lightmapper

Mircosoft Game Dev

The solution to these problems is to add support for a more traditional lightmapper (pre-baked light texture).

What are the performance limitations?
