From: http://secondlife.com/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=How+do+I+read+the+sim+performance+stats%3F
Script Perf - Number of LSL opcodes being executed a second by the simulator. Note that this is the number of ACTUAL instructions executed in the last second, not the theoretical maximum opcodes/second. If your simulator is not running very many scripts, this number will be low even if performance is good.
Does this mean if all my scripts are purely event-triggered and nobody is actually using them the number will be zero? |

Theoretically, yes

I was hoping for some actual benchmarks though  |

do you want fries with that ?  I'm at work now and can't benchmark anything other than [hmm, I'm not supposed to mention what I work on. Let alone post here from work :eep: ].

Observed in my sim: ~8000 ips as "base" script usage. Frame time: ~7.2 ms Adding a space cruiser: ~8100 ips Frame time: ~7.3ms (running a timer loop somewhere in a single script) Moving the space cruiser (multimove2, the smooth movement means vector algebra and calling those llSetPos every 0.15 second for each of the 17 objects): ~17000 ips Frame time: ~9.8ms These numbers ARE flaky, straight out of my faulty memory. Don't use them for anything serious [Edit] Since Sensual Casanova decided to bring back the Blingo Boards (hurray for alliterations ! And hurray for Blingo, it's about damn time !), I've noticed the game is snappier than ever before. For example it can drop multiple columns of gems down after a scoring move in a blink, instead of taking up to 5 seconds in v1.6. I must say such performance is truely shocking me

Thank you Jesrad  I need to steal my gf's laptop so i can get back into SL :\ Anyone else care to talk about their experiences with the new scheduler? |

OK, the script perf is not the only metric - in time there is a script time function too, which is way less jerky than the script perf.
Io, yesterday was running at around 60kips and 18ms script time perfectly happily. (TD=0.99/1.00, sim FPS solid at 45)
I'd suggest that this is close to the maximum - anyone entering Io then hit sim performance a hell of a lot, at one point two people logged in, into Io and the numbers went berserk, at one point for a while we had TD=0, simFPS=0 for 3 seconds or so.
Interestingly the script time allocation stayed still more or less (small fluctuations), whilst the image time metric above it went from 0.4ms or so to 10+ms. Not quite what I expected (I thought the new sim design was that the sim would lock to 45FPS if possible and reduce script time to fit that, 45fps =22.2ms frame time of course) actually it appeared the script time stayed solid and the hit of loading the textures overwhelmed the sims performance.
To add to this thought I went shopping. The sim had hardly any scripts (500 I think from memory) and suitably low script perf and script time numbers. It was still slow though - the image loading issues striking again I'm suspecting, shops obviously having quite a lot of textures in them. I was getting about 30 sim FPS there.
Now metrics about how much of a hit each function is won't come out of that (anyone got an empty island we can try it out on please?) but it's a bit more grist to the mill.
