* Fixing a bug where the max burst rate for the state category was being set as unlimited, causing connections to child agents to saturate bandwidth
* Upped the example default drip rates to 1000 bytes/sec, the minimum granularity for the token buckets
* Hip offset should have been added not subtracted (it's a negative offset). This puts avatar feet closer to the ground
* Improved duplicate checking for terse updates. This should reduce bandwidth and walking through walls
* Added contacts_per_collision to the ODE config section. This allows you to reduce the maximum number of contact points ODE will generate per collision and reduce the size of the array that stores contact structures
* Commenting out the MySQL startup sequence that cleans out dropped attachments under the advice that it is no longer relevant. If anything, it could be brought back as a database cleanup console command
* Updated to the latest libomv 0.8.0-pre. UUID.TryParse() will no longer throw and catch exceptions for most failed UUID parses
* Added a new [Startup] config option called use_async_when_possible to signal how to run operations that could be either sync or async
* Changed Scene.ForEachClient to respect use_async_when_possible
* Fixing a potential deadlock in Parallel.ForEach by locking on a temporary object instead of the enumerator (which may be shared across multiple invocations on ForEach). Thank you diva
* Avoid allocating an Action<IClientAPI> object every round of the OutgoingPacketHandler
* Removed unnecessary semi-colon endings from OpenSim.ini.example [InterestManagement] section
* Only initialize Util's SmartThreadPool if it is actually being used
* No longer initializing Util's SmartThreadPool with a custom max stack size. From MSDN: "Avoid using this constructor overload. The default stack size used by the Thread(ThreadStart) constructor overload is the recommended stack size for threads."
* Changed Util.FireAndForget() to use any of five different methods set with async_call_method in the [Startup] section of OpenSim.ini. Look at the example config for possible values
* Replaced calls to ThreadPool.QueueUserWorkItem() with ThreadPool.UnsafeQueueUserWorkItem() since OpenSim does not use Code Access Security sandboxing
* OnQueueEmpty is still called async, but will not be called for a given category if the previous callback for that category is still running. This is the most balanced behavior I could find, and seems to work well
* Added support for the old [ClientStack.LindenUDP] settings (including setting the receive buffer size) and added the new token bucket and global throttle settings
* Added the AssetLoaderEnabled config variable to optionally disable loading assets from XML every startup. This gives a dramatic improvement in startup times for those who don't need the functionality every startup
* Moved all priority queue access to helper functions to improve reliability and readability
* New version of CSJ2K.dll (from libomv source tree) that fixes a JPEG2000 comment decoding bug
