0008057: (OS 0.9.1) Many seated Avatars in region cause bad lag, high physics load in ubODE

those avatars should only be using physics for the camera cast rays.
but those should not be very frequently (??)
is one of those meshs heavy?
I don't have 40 avatars to try repo

removed redundant calls to physics for camera collision checks that where introduced at some point on 0.8
possible this is not the main problem...

A large percentage of the Avs use mesh bodies and clothing, guess > 75%.
We will get that patch installed and run a load test.
TY :)

We also have daily events that attract 20+ avatars all laden down with mesh and scripts.

avatar meshs are attachments and so not on physics, even if standing.
the camera collision test only looks for prims known to physics, from the camera position to avatar head. (slower if this path is included/intercepts their external bounds box on physics).
but again, it can be something else :(

at lbsa and other osg regions running ubOde i never noticed outstanding physics load with just avatars.

Hi
Any feedback on this?
LBSA with 21 avatars showed minimal ubOde load ( 0.91 dev master )

Hi Ubit,
We did not get to test it by replicating previous situation as planned. The patch you provided was installed early last week. We immediately began to have serious grid issues. It became almost totally inoperable because sims we suddenly tying up all our memory. It became so bad that Kunta Kinte removed the patch and went back to our previous config. He said that the patch "must have some sort of memory leak as sims are tying up all the memory, which didn't happen before". As soon as he reverted the memory went back to previous levels.
We really appreciate the promptness of your response to the reported issue, and sorry this wasn't the solution we are all hoping for. Kitto is exploring other possibilities and has discovered on some sims buried objects which seem to be causing big physic load spikes. They maybe junk and stuff from OS 0.8.
We will keep in touch and hopefully you will be able to look at this some more.
Cheers,
Waki

meanwhile i did introduce a bug that was causing high use of memory
LBSA seems happy with OpenSim 0.9.1.0 Dev d8812ba: 2016-11-18 03:00:59 +0000 (Unix/Mono) as I type
sorry ;)
