console warning: "Too many lights in the scene !!!" Every time I switch back to my Layout workspace I get a flood of messages saying:

Too many lights in the scene !!!

Everything seems to be rendering fine.   I do have some simulated &quot;LED light arrays&quot; in my scene.  Is this a serious problem or should I ignore this?   How many lights are too many?
For questions like this please indicate what render engine you are using. Eevee has a limit of 128 lights in a scene.

Also, for simulated LED arrays you might want to consider a single texture as part of an emission shader.
