After a lil Forum Search that didn't answer my questions I firgure I'll just post it.

1. How many people can fit in a single mainland Sim simultaneously?

2. How many people can fit on a small (65,536m) Island simultaneously?

1: 40

2: Normally 40. Private island owners can increase it to as high as 100, but at anything much over 40, performance truly sucks, so very few allow any more than 40. Who wants to visit a sim where you can't move?

Thanks Ceera...yeah I have noticed a few places where the owners pack it full anyway, and I guess in those cases it's..."survival of the fittest", meanin the folks with the best computers.

The P.I.'s that allow more than 40, usually turn off all scripts.
Its amazing how much of server load is caused all those attachments we carry around on our backs. (Not to mention on our heads, and arms, and feet).

The most I've ever seen packed into a sim is 96. Theoretically, I've been told by the Lindens, the actual limit is 100. I assume that's given a sim with nothing but Avatars on it, but even so, I hate to think of the time dilation problems.
