Well, that was just my impression, but my experience with post-llMediaPlugin-merge viewers (with and without the hack patch) is still rather limited (I recently don't have a lot of spare time to spend inworld) and thus probably far from representative. > I'm glad to hear that for sure, but, if you have any data supporting > that claim, would you mind sharing them? I'd love it to be real but > that sounds too good to be true... Maybe it is. I just know that with a viewer I've built after the merge I crashed within the first 10 minutes after logging in (which was like ... twice or trice. And it was more like Snowgobe froze to death than a real crash). Seeing that the viewer was complaining a lot about the missing d2114404-dd59-4a4d-8e6c-49359e91bbf0 image, I decided to try applying the patch after which I didn't seem to have these problems anymore. Obviously, that's significantly better to me, but don't take my use of the word "significant" here in the meaning it has in statistical testing ;-)
Oh, and by "reduces" I really meant "seems to reduce". I've tried to cut down relativizations in my written language, because I tend to overuse them (not a native speaker of English), but looks like I should have kept it here to avoid wrong impressions.
