Experimentally, on the Linden Lab grid the avatar can rotate slightly before triggering AvatarUpdates, whereas this is practically impossible in OpenSimulator.
These updates allow other avatars to see rotations, though sensitivity is low since other avatars can only be seen in one of 8 body rotations.
This commit changes sensitivity from 0.01 to 0.1, which better matches LL and reduces UDP traffic which has a beneficial impact on network and CPU load.
This has no impact on rotations in the simulator itself so simulation fidelity is the same as before.
To change this setting back for test/other purposes, edit RootRotationUpdateTolerance in the [InterestManagement] section of OpenSim.ini
Running out of such threads under heavy load causes delayed packet processing which can lead to spurious UDP resends and knock on issues.
We already massively boost the min/max builtin pool worker and IOCP threads (which even with STP are still used for inbound network requests) without obvious adverse effects.
The threads are only instantiated if they are required.
This change does not affect other async_call_method options.
Move the experimental extra features functionality into the GridService. This sends default values for map, search and destination guide, plus ExportSupported control to the region on startup. Please watch http://opensimulator.org/wiki/SimulatorFeatures_Extras for changes and documentation.
These govern when AgentUpdates are sent to observers on position, rotation and velocity changes to an avatar (including the avatar themselves).
Higher values reduce AgentUpdate traffic but at a certain level will degrade smoothness of avatar and perceived avatar movement.
This covers event queue setup messages and some outgoing messages (e.g. EnableSimulator)
In my experience these messages are only useful if you really know what they mean and you're looking for them
Otherwise, they're quite spammy.
Event queue DebugLevel 1 is enabled with the "debug eq 1" console command
On non-HG this is on the only recognized failure state so we can return more information in the error result.
On HG there are multiple failure states which would require more work to distinguish, so currently return the unsatisfying "Internal Error" like some other existing calls.
This may have been the trigger CheckSendingPatchesToClients() dictionary out of sync exceptions in today's load test.
Don't need to check ContainsKey() since Remove() returns false on a request to remove a key that it doesn't have
Allows experiments in manually reducing updates under heavy load.
Activated by "debug scene set client-upd-per" console command.
In a simple test, can send as few as every 4th update before observed movement starts becoming disturbingly rubber-banded.
Corresponds to ResendAppearnceUpdates setting in [Appearance] in OpenSim.ini
This was originally implemented to alleviate cloud appearance problems but could be too expensive with large numbers of avatars.
This governs when child agent position changes are sent to neighbouring regions.
Corresponding config parameter is ChildReprioritizationDistance in [InterestManagement] in OpenSim.ini
For test purposes.
This gives a count of all requests made to the remote inventory service.
This is finer grained than inventory.httpfetch.ProcessedFetchInventoryRequests since such a request can be comprised of many individual inv service calls.
In addition, this will count requests that don't go through the HTTP inventory fetch (e.g. HG, archiving, etc.)
A stop gap solution - a better one may be to improve stats display on simulator-side.
Caps information is still accessible via the "show caps stats by user" and "show caps stats by cap" commands
This is for testing purposes (chiefly http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=7054) so many not be permanent
Setting this will change the xinventory request timeout from the simulator from the default 100 seconds
For each service endpoint (e.g. posts to the xinventory service), a stat is available which shows the number of requests received and moving average per second
The full name is "service.<http-method>:<path>.requests (e.g. service.POST:/xinventory.requests)

It can't be done this way because the stats data needs to show up on the console at all log levels, not just debug.
But this means setting it to log at fatal, which is not appropriate for this stuff in the log.
I understand the desire but this has to be done some other way, perhaps by (yet another) config parameter.
Also, this was already being done with the ClientStatsReport but that also should be done in another way, I think.
This reverts commit 5d53412766.
I forgot that a null 'their version' would not be passed over the wire and ends up as an empty string instead (like older simulators).
So instead pass through the correct simulator protcol version instead (SIMULATOR/0.3) when querying from login or hg login.
Also removes a debug console write for agent limit accidentally left in for the same commit.
Relates to mantis 7276
Despite the comments in the code, it appears that the issue where the .NET performance counter was wrongly idle time time on Mono was fixed in 2009.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=468625
Which means that the workaround is no longer necessary and produces bad results instead.
Another manifestation of this bug is that after a Hypergrid teleport, when you click on one of the avatar's attachments the object doesn't show its name. This means that the viewer knows the attachment is there, but the simulator does not.
The problem was caused by treating Hypergrid teleports as if they're Logins (because the teleport flag ViaLogin is enabled).
