* Really this should be 1, but I think that this would be too slow compared to a Second Life server until we improve our ability to send textures of variable quality
* This may improve one aspect of sim performance where there are many avatars. However, there are still other performance problems that are unrelated to this change
* Value may be further tuned
* Removed temporary decals since the multipler setting will stick around now
* This should probably be 1, but currently by default it is 8, to reflect what was being eon3 in OpenSim before this revision. So if the client requested a maximum throttle
of 1500 kilobits per second, we would actually send out 1500 kilobytes per second
* Adjusting this multiplier down towards 1 may improve your OpenSim experience, though in other situations it may degrade (e.g. if you're using a standalone over high bandwidth
links)
* This is currently a user setting because adjusting it down may currently reveal other OpenSim bugs.
* Changing network bandwidth in the preferences will now have a much more noticeable effect - a user may want to increase this if data is being slow to download from opensim
* if a packet was really null it would be caught by the general exception handler at the top of the client thread, which would also provide more information and attempt a clean
shutdown
* This is a HUGE OMG update and will definitely have unknown side effects.. so this is really only for the strong hearted at this point. Regular people should let the dust settle.
* This has been tested to work with most basic functions. However.. make sure you back up 'everything' before using this. It's that big!
* Essentially we're back at square 1 in the testing phase.. so lets identify things that broke.
resending, timeouts, packet discarding. Add notification event for
packet discarding. Add priority scheduling for packet queues.
Add outgoing duplicate detection facility. Correct packet sequencing.
Make provisions for automatic server side throttle adjustments (comes
in next installment)
