There are a number of urban legends floating around opensim. Here are some:

1) It's bad to put numeric IP in ini's.

2) If your simulator is on port 9000, put your first region on port 
10000. It will reduce latency.

3) Create a "first", empty, hidden simulator in ROBUST's directory 
(this is for ppl that clone the bin/ directory for each simulator). 
This will accelerate asset transfers.


True/false?
