This is a module which allows you to periodically export a serialised version of your region to a SVN repository and store it there. It is still a work in progress and is currently disabled and incomplete, but some of the functionality is demonstratable.
* Enjoy.
* Added the new mapper to the mapper factory
* Made choice of mapper configurable
* This means, in hteory, that we can persist avatar appearance on MSSQL as well
* This module more or less crashes every region in the instance if you enable it by moving it from local /bin to global /bin
* But hey, it crashes in lots of interesting ways.
* This will show the packets waiting in each queue for each client logged into a region server
* These are displayed using 'show stats' on the region command line
* This is in pursuit of a memory leak.
* This will require a prebuild
* Patch 1 stops OpenSim.32BitLaunch.exe and ScriptEngines/Default.lsl being deleted on nant clean
* Patch 2 resolves a building problem with pCampBot
* This will require a prebuild rerun
To use, see the appearance section in opensim.ini.example, set "persist = true", then add the correct connection string for your database.(see mysql-AvatarAppearance.sql in share folder for a example of the table mysql table structure).
This could possible be used in a very small grid, but would mean each region server would need to connect to the same mysql database.
But the work to move the code to one of the grid servers shouldn't be too much.
* You can type 'stats' at the REGION# prompt to get this information in grid or standalone mode
* Don't take these numbers as gospel yet, since for some reason textures displayed from inventory which require downloading from the server are being recorded as assets
rather than textures
* But I don't have any reason to believe they aren't broadly accurate.
* I've put these in so I can tell whether the high memory usage on regions is down to the asset/texture cache
* This will require a prebuild
* DEV: Only adds needed to be implemented since, as far as I can tell, assets cached are currently never released. For my part, seeing large cache memory numbers will
provoke me to think about doing something about this.
* DEV: Now switched to using a singleton to get the stats reporters rather than threading the object through various layers
* DEV: Will refactor the other server stats reporters to do this in one of the next commits
* The hooks are still plugged in too high at the asset server, but then next layer down is the database and this may be refactored soon.
* This change will requires a prebuild
* Interestingly, OpenSim builds fine on mono under nant without these references (as nulls are passed in instead of the objects)
* But it appears other systems (at least VS2008) complain if the references aren't present
* Many thanks to Grumly57 for catching this!
