Whereas Private Islands run on their own dedicated CPU, the Openspace regions run four per CPU: this limits their performance, as you would expect.

this isn't true is it I know for a fact lukanidia is on a server with 3 other sims so is montmartre think some one should hip Jack to how it works.

Hi RacerX,
What I stated is correct, I think you may be confusing servers with CPUs. A class 4 server with four processor (CPUs) in it can host four normal regions/islands (each gets its own dedicated CPU).

The Openspace regions on the other hand, are run four per CPU (not per server) meaning that there may be as many as sixteen running on a four CPU machine.

Openspaces share a CPU with up to three other Openspaces.
Normal regions/Islands do not share a CPU.

I hope that makes it clearer for you! IM me inworld if you have further questions.

Yours,



Jack
