Big astreoids?

[Linkus]

What will happen if it happens?..It'll happen?

If you do have larger asteroids, asteroid fields will most likely become extremely deadly to anything bigger than a fighter and if when the asteroids are shot, they split into say 4 smaller asteroids, you are effectively creating 4x more lag for the server. Mining may not cause a lot of lag for the server as it is, but you would effectively be multiplying the amount of miners by 4.
Not only that, but if the weapon was implemented too that shot many asteroids at once (Large radius, very low damage, perfect for area killing of asteroids) then you would create plenty more lag.

Still, it might not cause that much lag in the end, has anyone ever looked at how much lag mining does cause?
