It hasn't been better for me since I installed the latest viewer. Did your cat chew your cable recently? (assuming you have a cat, otherwise I guess a dog or a hamster can do that too), sorry, feeling teasing today. Maybe today's rolling restarts will make it better for you.

Could you be more specific, please?  You might want to start at the wiki.

Welcome to Second Life Answers, chasity.

There are many reasons why you might be feeling more laggy lately.  Are you going to busy places? Are you wearing a lot of scripted attachments? Is it a long time since you updated your graphics card drivers? Have you got your graphics settings set too high?  Is your graphics card wearing out?  Are you experiencing any other problems, aside from this general sluggish sensation?

I am not finding Second Life any more laggy than usual.

I & a lot of other people are having TERRIBLE lag. I took up jousting to get away from the lag hell of other combat battles, only to find the past couple of weeks, just as much lag as those sim crashing raids, with 1/4 of the people. SL is becoming miserable for me. I have spoken to other people, and they have notices the same thing.

Do you have your draw distance set to maximum or something?
