Fact is mainland casino's are rather small in comparision and provide just as much lag if not less then those at a club on mainland. Scripts from a casino contribute to lag but are not all to blame for lag (server lag). Using high rez textures on a home can contribute more lag (client or computer lag) making it more noticable to the user then scripts. Using AO's on yourself and multiplying that by everyone that's at a place in SL can contribute to lag. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Bottom line is casino's are not all to blame for mainland lag. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Stick 40 prim heavy script heavy avi's in a class 5 sim with nonthing in it.. no buildings no textures no casinos/clubs  and tell me you dont experience lag. My guess is you will. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And no... not all casino's go camp crazy with 20+ camping chairs and 20+ zombies. :)</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">william fish</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 07 Apr 2007 09:28:51 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
