Hey all,

I was just wondering if any of you currently playing Second Life find that it uploads a lot of data whilst playing? I just noticed I accumulated over 1GB worth of upload from playing in three days. Is this normal?

Appreciate your feedback.

Depends on how long you are logged in each day. EVerything you do in SL is communicated to LL's servers. Move your avatar, tp, chat........almost everything. The client sends the servers what you are looking at and the servers send back the data for you see what you are looking at. Type words in chat and it goes to the servers to be delivered to everyone around

I don't think 1 gig in three days is out of the ordinary.
