Gappy do you know how often the server checks for objects in ms?

$ЂЯĢ: Yes, I have decided that I will stream race checkpoints and 3D text labels as well.
cyber_punk/Kyosaur!!: I just tested with 1,000,000 (one million) objects in my local server, and they all streamed perfectly with fine with two players connected. Memory usage was around 100MB, and when a player moved, CPU usage jumped to about 5% using the default tickrate (obviously, if you have that many objects created, you will need to raise the tickrate—unlikely, though, because it took me several hours to create them all in my script!). These numbers can be a little misleading, though. The best thing to do is to simply try it out on your server and see how it fares. At some point in the future, I will create a zoning system so that there will be less objects to iterate through on each update. By the way, there is no limit to the number of objects that can be created (well, technically, there IS, but you will probably run out of memory before reaching it).
[SU]BP13: The tickrate varies. For me, a tickrate of 100 was about 200-300ms, but for slower processors, it will probably need to be lowered to stream objects effectively. Try a few different values to see what works best for you.
Shady91: The Linux version has a bug that will be fixed in the next update.

A small update: I expected to get the newer version out sooner, but I was busy with something else yesterday. I will test some more streamed items in a few minutes and see how it goes. Also, because of the memory leak in PawnCommand and the bug in Linux, I cannot recommend using this plugin on dedicated servers at the moment, but feel free to to test it on home servers until I finish the updated version (which should be soon).

I only tested it on windows and it seemed to load slower I tested for about 10 minutes. I haven't tried it on Linux yet.
