Cost of rendering Avatars

If something is very slow in Second Life, it’s often for Grid problems… However, it seems that 3D rendering of Avatars can have a significant impact on performances.
The latest release candidate of the Second Life Viewer can show you how much an avatar is impacting on performances.
My take? Stop giving responsibilities to users, start implementing a better rendering engine, and make the Grid more stable and performing. Take OpenCroquet as a guiding light!
