3DMark03/3DMark06/SLMarkMO
--------------------------------
A) 5,593 / 298 / 11.25
B) 6,116 / 347 / NA
C) 6,535 / 364 / NA
D) NA / 1,792 / NA
E) 12,409 / 3,004 / NA
F) 13,735 / 3,324 / 32.75
SLMarkMO is the average FPS of the following:
Suffugium (101, 116, 34) staring at the top left button on the security panel keypad: 14 FPS/40 FPS
Arena (142, 46, 57) Sitting in the chair under the "Pleasant Surroundings" picture and focusing on the lazer sphere over the dance floor with music playing and video playing: 7 FPS/12 FPS
Amundsen (0, 2, 2) Sitting on the ground (underwater) and staring at the intersection of the four corners of the neighboring sim property lines: 20 FPS/72 FPS
Badlands (204, 130, 23) Staring at the hollow part of the "d" in "Bad" on the sign over the DJ booth: 4 FPS/7 FPS
The above spots represent (in the order they appear) a very prim heavy, but not crowded region, an area with some complexity and lots of video screens, an area where there is not a prim in sight (or within the draw distance), and an area that has some complexity and tons of traffic (averages 40+ avatars at any given time).
