Eric, out of all the tools out there, lightroom is the slowest, just
get off it till it gets much much better. i have tried two betas and
both suck.

prophoto is actully better than the adobe rgb 1998 , i use it but it
could also be that is the default profile for conversions in lightroom
and if so the tiff are now prophoto and you can not just assign it,
and must convert
