* '''Second Life Server''' (main channel)
* '''Second Life Server''' (main channel)
** Promoted with the group chat simside fixes from BlueSteel
** This received Kelly's "mono2-performance" branch.
** https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Release_Notes/Second_Life_Server/11#11.06.14.232746
** Script performance and robustness
**: This release includes many features that improve the performance and robustness of scripts compiled to Mono. This includes a lot of back end infrastructure work with unit tests and script life cycle to make it easier and safer to work with the script system in the future.
** New Script Profiling LSL Functions
*** [[llScriptProfiler]] can enable or disable memory profiling with [[PROFILE_SCRIPT_MEMORY]] and [[PROFILE_SCRIPT_NONE]]. While profiling the scripts performance will be severely impacted.
*** [[llGetSPMaxMemory]] will report the highest level of used memory during the most recent, or current, profiling run.
*** [[llGetUsedMemory]] will report the current used memory of the script and does not require profiling to be enabled.
** Bug Fixes
*** {{Jira|SVC-3895}} Rezzing Mono scripted object cripples sim FPS
*** Improved 'Top Scripts' report
***: Each object now reports an average script time per frame since the object was created or the last 30 minutes, whichever is shorter. This fixes a lot of odd behavior and misinformation in the previous results as well as makes it easier to determine recent lag sources instead of only immediate lag sources.
***: It is still not expected for this result to exactly match the 'Script ms' reported in the simulator stats summary as these measure different things on different time scales.
*** (Fixed a) Sim crash in mono memory monitor.
*** Includes the fix that caused the zero day rollback.
*** Improved simulator performance when removing objects with scripts from a region.
*** Fixed a bug that could cause scripts to crash with NullReferenceException errors.
**** https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-6926

*** Added new parameter to <code>llHTTPRequest</code> - <code>HTTP_VERBOSE_THROTTLE</code>. Value is '''4''', type is '''integer'''. If specified in the parameters list as a non-zero value (true), the script will emit errors when the throttle for outgoing requests is hit. If zero (false), the script will remain silent on errors. The default value is true.

Example: <pre>key http_request_id = llHTTPRequest("http://example.com/", [HTTP_VERBOSE_THROTTLE, 0], "");</pre>
*** {{jira|SCR-67}}: Added new constant <code>PRIM_OMEGA</code> for use with <code>llGetPrimitiveParams</code>, <code>llSetPrimitiveParams</code>, <code>llGetLinkPrimitiveParams</code>, <code>llSetLinkPrimitiveParams</code>, <code>llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast</code>. This gives access to the "target omega" property of primitives which can be set via <code>llTargetOmega</code>, but allows getting the current target omega for a prim (previously not supported) and setting the target omega on a child prim (previously only doable with a script on each prim).


The list has the signature <code>[vector <var>axis</var>, float <var>spinrate</var>, float <var>gain</var>]</code> like the parameters for <code>llTargetOmega</code>
The list has the signature <code>[vector <var>axis</var>, float <var>spinrate</var>, float <var>gain</var>]</code> like the parameters for <code>llTargetOmega</code>


Examples:
<pre>
// Set this prim rotating
llTargetOmega(&lt;1.0,3.0,0.5&gt;, TWO_PI, 1.0);
// Read back this prim's current target omega
list current_omega = llListToList( llGetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_OMEGA]); // should be [PRIM_OMEGA, axis, spinrate, gain]
vector axis = llList2Vector(current_omega, 1); // Should be &lt;1.0,3.0,0.5&gt;
float spinrate = llList2Float(current_omega, 2); // Should be TWO_PI
float gain = llList2Float(current_omega, 3); // Should be 1.0
// Set all child prims rotating
llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast(LINK_ALL_CHILDREN, [PRIM_OMEGA, &lt;1.0,3.0,0.5&gt;, TWO_PI, 1.0]);
</pre>
