[Opensim-dev] Creation of 100+ users and TestClient Logins!

[Umar Farooq]

Dear Dan,

I am using Robust, and running a private grid for my experiments. I have
noticed the issue of sequential execution of actions, and am using a
number of different TestClient instances using different connections.

I have noticed that when we use goto or teleport command for bots and then
apply a command, the server is responds that an action is performed but
the bots are not updating in the scene, any comment on that?

Which metric would be best to check load of a system? CPU usage, Network
Utilisation and anything else? Sorry if that is too stupid to ask!

It would be great to have the code available whenever it is possible.
Thanks again for your help.

Best wishes and have a great day.

Umar
