Pauses the Loading of Images into the Preview Widget during Baking
Loading in Images into the Preview area takes a small amount of time during the bake process and will increase general RAM usage
(since each image needs to be loaded and kept in RAM).
If you have a large amount of udims to bake at high resolutions, and your RAM is full, this might lead to issues.
If you are experiencing issues during baking, try pausing the Preview
