That all is true of pure OpenSim, but not necessarily true of OpenSim-compatible grids. ReactionGrid and InWorldz are OpenSim-compatible, meaning they use the same viewers and started with OpenSim code, but they've fixed many of the problems and are working to fix the others. Personally I favor InWorldz, and am now developing my avatars there before SL.
