Converting physics shape/to mesh to decrease load time on avatar?

[Amaliel Syaka]

Hi guys! I'm a quasi-newbie who is coming back to second life and am learning about the mesh and physics shape changes. It seems that changing the physics shape for non-round objects lowers the impact the object has on Land. 

 

Is this also true for avatars? Will converting the physics shape on my 60 odd prim backpack lessen the load on my fellow users? How about converting it (recreating) to mesh? I'm trying to be a good citizen after all. 

 

Thanks for the help.

Worn objects have no physics shape, so that won't make any difference at all...

Turning it into mesh might lower the display and server load though, depending on how you build it. That's certainly worth the try.
