On Rails Physics.

You guys are all basing this on the game's current functionality. There's still plenty of room for them to optimize the game's coding so that my comp which can play Farcry 3 doesn't chug in Kerbal

I was just wondering, what would happen if the planets and moons weren't on rails and could have legitimate physics?

if they didn't have legimate physics but were affected by soi & ships pushing them. I wouldn't see how this would melt the computer as you say.assuming you only loade the phycisc of a planet when you are in it's soi then there should only be a small change.

You would have to be loading all of the planets' physics, though.
