The performance of SL is getting worse and worse for me and many others that I know. I became tired of owning a sim (had two sims at my peak of ownership) that was basically unusable because of the lag and other problems.(like ghosted avatars stuck in the sim). A good friend had her store in my sim. When that did not go any where, we opened a live music club. This had some interest but the lag even took the fun away from that. It is not very fun to have people crashing or even the singer crashing over and over and unable to log back in after a five to ten minute wait. Or the countless IM's from people who had a friends avatar ghosted in the sim, then becoming angry at me because I am unable to restart a mainland sim. Being a premium account I would call the help desk and ask for a sim restart. The answer that I would get was to file a support ticket or have the person whose avatar was ghosted file one. Of course these support tickets never have a response.So a waste of time and the ghosted avatars are stuck until the sim crashes. I ended up throwing up my hands and selling my sim (Linden Lab's since no one really owns anything in Second Life) and decided to go somewhere else. Maybe Rod is our Great White Hope and can fix Second Life. After Second Life being around since 2003 and performance steadly getting worse(most companies improve over time), I do not see how Rod ruin Second Life. Welcome aboard Rod and best of luck.
