Because of the style of play I favor, feeder leagues are a necessity. In fictional games at least. According to feeder league math I need 93.3 feeder teams to fill my draft pool. I rounded that up to 100. That's 100 teams playing games, fielding rosters of 30 players each, each generating stats, and all 3000 of them using memory and processing power. The performance hit is noticeable.
Don't get me wrong, it's a trade off I have to accept but 100 teams is really not that much compared to a real NCAA set up with at least an equal number of HS teams. It would not be difficult to do something for feeders I think. But right now they do what they are supposed to do: produce draft pool players with stat history. I don't think time invested in them will bring much return in terms of game quality since most folks don'y use them because of the performance hit.
