[Opensim-dev] [Opensim-users] hypergrid teleports andnon-hypergrid simulators

[Brianna]

What we plan to do at our next Regatta is use an Amazon cloud for the event and HG to it. We ran yesterday's regatta on an EC2 instance and it had excellent xscript performance. This will further accomplish total removal of neighbor region laggy influences and superior load handling.

It has been reported that LL's Blake Sea opening event, yesterday, was a technical disaster and our OSG vastly out performed them... ty dev team
