Tips to Improve Second Life Rendering Performance

Nalates has a whole boatload of tips for improving Second Life render speed, based on advice from a Linden. It involves digging into the Debug menu. Here's a setting you can tweak, for instance:

RenderAvatarMaxVisible – Maximum number of avatars to display at any one time. – Simon recommends 8. In my Second Life 3.7.29 (301305) the impostors render as Jelly Babies, not what I expected. – There is also a control for this in Preferences->Grpahics->Max # of non-impostor avatars.

... which would somewhat defeat the purpose of being in an MMO, but OK. Many more here.
