Frequently asked questions

Rez the DSE Sim Monitor on any region where you can build. Charts and tables appear within minutes, and hourly and daily summaries build up over time. Touch the monitor in-world for a temporary link to your report: for you, your group, or everyone. The object can be made invisible.

To keep your data private. A link lasts up to 14 days, and expires sooner if nobody opens it for 24 hours. Requesting a new link cancels the old one, so you can revoke a link you've shared.

All times are SLT (US/Pacific). On the Detailed tab it's when the monitor sent that report (about every 10 minutes, summarizing samples taken every 5 seconds). On Hourly and Daily it's the start of the period.

No. It queries the region every few seconds using efficient built-in LSL calls and reports min/max/average at the end of each period. It avoids known performance-impacting actions such as region-wide avatar scans or chat listening, so its footprint is negligible.

Yes — it works on any Second Life region regardless of estate. Dream Seeker Estates residents get extra value through integration with the estate's Active Performance Management.

Yes. Only one reports at a time, so nothing is counted twice; the others are automatic backups. Your report shows which one is active.

Your Estate Manager or Linden Lab support can help troubleshoot performance. See the Lag and Region Performance guide, or email us.
