Does it make any noticeable differences in game?!
I usually use it but i can never tell if it helps online at all.

Also, would it be that ingame pings/lag are improved, or is it further related to frames per second?

I'm pretty sure that my game play is smoother with it on... It most likely depends on the vid card that you have. 64 MB and less it probably makes a difference, any more and I don't think that it would matter.
w00t?

It does do something. Turn it in in an online multiplayer game and then start a LAN game. You'll notice the harvesters acting weird.

That's the solution to the harvester bug when hosting a game, thanks.
And the reason the harvesters act weird, is because the game only gives a crap about objects actually visible when you turn on CPO. It's ok in multiplayer because as you know the server handles harvester waypaths and things like that.

So what does it actually do?
Can it stop you sliding around / vehicles being jumpy sometimes?
I'll have to have a fiddle around, thanks
it seems to me to improve FPS on larger games (if you're not looking at the action, in a tunnel or something) you'll get higher FPS

From what ive known about using client physics optimization, is that it will make an average of your fps, rather then giving you random numbers dropping at high rates.
So lets say your ingame with 20-50 fps without, when you turn it on, it will make an average depending what you can handle, so it would be around 35 constant fps rather then jumping around alot.
I only use it in large servers, i like to get high fps on low amount of players, so its not needed really.

As has already been explained at least twice in the thread. And no, you need to activate it every time you run the game.
