[Opensim-users] New users welcome oar

[Justin Clark-Casey]

Regarding 4), the limits tend to depend on the power of the hardware (CPU, memory, network bandwidth, etc.)  Some 
information on this is at [1]

Regarding the other questions, you might also want to try the various OpenSimulator related forums (e.g. osgrid) and 
Google+ communities for input.  I think they tend to be more active for people with less experience in OpenSimulator.
