[Opensim-users] MySQL on seperate server?

[Steve]

So out of interest, what are the upload limits per avatar for example. I 
have just shy of 1 Mb upload speed, and have happily accommodated 8 
Avatars (after one in particular who was throwing up masses of errors 
left). How far could I, in theory, push it?
