New physics causes lag with mega prims?

"New physics causes lag with mega prims"

A customer of mine mentioned this, and she didnt know anything else, just saying that she is removing all mega prims from her land because of lag.

Is there any truth to this, a link I can get so I can read about it?

What is a megaprim?

In the past long long ago that was every prim over 10m. Now a normal prim can have up to 64m. Anything bigger is a megaprim. Makes only sense for a platform of sim size for example.

However.
There is no "new physics" and big prims cause no lag. My home is inside a 512m sphere that is the wall for the space panorama and I'm surrounded by a pile of prims and objects over 50m. 

If someone has problems with their craptop performance under SL that case needs to be analyzed on a single case base. If someone "thinks" that this or that causes their personal lag there is usually no trace of "thinking" involved. And if someone finds an article in the internet about megaprims and lag they should check the date of that. Many residents weren't even born then.

So with some blind actionism the lag will stay for sure.

On the contrary.

SL will be pretty damn empty though.
