<DIV><FONT face=Verdana size=2>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.<BR></FONT></DIV>

users carry around information about their <BR>> servers (user, inventory,
home region, etc) that is stored on their <BR>> run-time profile cached in
the regions. When they go from an HG region <BR>> to another HG region,
that information is passed on via the message <BR>> expect_hg_user, which
only HG regions understand. When they go from an <BR>> HG region to a
non-HG region, the receiving region doesn't understand <BR>> that message,
so it knows nothing about those servers for the foreign <BR>> user. If the
TP is far enough away, the profile is removed from the <BR>> departing HG
region (as normal for all TPs), so the user's servers info <BR>> is
permanently lost for the rest of the session. Even if the user comes <BR>>
back to the HG region, the information has been lost.<BR>> <BR>> Without
that information the foreign user cannot: access inventory <BR>> (except
for the items that are cached in the viewer), go back home, etc...<BR>>
<BR>> So jumping from an HG region to a non-HG region on the same grid is
ok, <BR>> in the sense that it doesn't crash anything, and that the user's
agent <BR>> is is able to interact with the world, but that user becomes
impaired in <BR>> many ways. The user is still able to chat, build &
move things (if <BR>> allowed), TP around, etc. It's just the interaction
with his/her home <BR>> servers that is impaired.<BR>> <BR>>
