The people making you lag are the ones who never look at performance at all. It would be like removing a single 4K texture from one of those 100MB+ avatars from hell. But in reality, for something like VRChat, where you don't control the avatar content of everyone else, if your avatar is under 70K poly nobody is going to notice that. You can reduce memory/VRAM usage of the mesh with this method, which is great if you're trying to really optimize a game you have full autonomy over. The fact is nobody has incentive to do that optimization and in fact the systems in place actively discourage it. So no shot I would ever recommend anyone actually do this splitting of meshes. In a social game where seeing each other is a huge part of the experience, I wouldn't call this optimizing for user experience, just for user hardware. Also even if you do all that work, and end up with an optimized 2-3 skinned meshes, with unneeded shapes removed from the pieces that don't move (like body not having viseme shapes), your reward is that the performance rating system downgrades you for having more skinned meshes, and will block your avatar to everyone on Quest by default. Problem is nobody wants to put in dozens of hours making 1 or 2 skinned meshes into even more objects and updating animations/descriptor to use them properly.
