[Opensim-dev] Problems With Teleports in 7.5

[Justin Clark-Casey]

I suggest trying the setting

async_call_method = UnsafeQueueUserWorkItem

in [Startup] if you are running mono 2.10 or later.  This setting uses the built in thread pool for non-script temporary 
threads rather than the SmartThreadPool (STP) package that OpenSimulator included in 0.7.5 post-fixes.  There appears to 
be an association between STP and this issue.  See Mantis 6557 [1] for more details, which sounds like the same issue.

It appears that the built-in threadpool worked badly on mono 2.4 and before, which was one of the reasons for STP. 
However, I believe this was resolved in mono 2.10 (though more data is very welcome).  I have also updated the version 
of STP used in current OpenSimulator dev code which may or may not help - awaiting results on this.
