Hello,
I have not seen any announcements from Lindens about this so here goes...
I have been inundated by ghosts lately. All over the sim, usually in the sky there are ghosted avitars, sometimes dozens at once.
Since this is also happening at the same time (during the past week), that *incredible* amounts of lag have been happening all over SL (and in my sim even when I am the only one there), and since the biggest cause of lag is in fact avatars....
Is this the cause? I mean it seems like for some reason avitars are getting du0plicated or ghosted al over the place which would obviously bring up the lag a lot.
Can someone with more technical knowledge comment on this?

There is the possibility that sometimes, when someone with a really poor connection (high retransmit times) enters an area, that it will affect everyone else this way to see ghosts. I wish I could elucidate on the technical details further but I'm not sure myself, and would like to know more about the specifics about why this happens. Avatar and object ghosting under most conditions has been greatly ameliorated in SL 1.6.x, but clearly there's still some haunting going on as you pointed out.
