I use the terrain contrib, and divide my world into smaller 256x256 terrains. 
Since they are literally stacked edge to edge, I early out on any collision
between two terrains.  I also bound my world with planes, to keep the creatures
from falling off the earth.  I early out any collisions between a plane and the
terrain.  Another thing I do is anchor certain objects to the ground, such as
trees, so they don't wander off.  Those objects early out on any collisions
between them and the terrian.
