Better core and settings for a minigame
Im currently selfhosting a server for my friends, that has a single minigame(ultimate ctf), all players are always in one general area(like small bedwars map), there are 6-10 players, no mobs, only voicemod plugin, and datapacks for this minigame
Im running 1.21.4 on purpur with 1.5 out of 2gbs of ram allocated
Surprisingly, it works smoothly, but sometimes whole server lags and with 10 players it does so quite frequently
So I was wondering if there are any good settings I might change(apart from render distance and entity tracking) or maybe in this case it will actually be beneficial to try fabric with sodium and stuff?

Also I already use java flags on startups
Also I have a friend who REALLY likes fabric as a server core, so thats why I wanna know if theres actually a place for a performance gain in this scnario
Also the map uses a lot of particle effects to the point where my friend had to turn them off to get better fps
Spark report?
are you sure it’s server lag and not latency/network issues?
I saw tps drop in tps bar so i think it was server thing
Are you connected via Ethernet to the server? Did u experience it too?
I only decided to try something after we ended our session and i restarted server a few times with some new small setting changes
Yep
Alr then likely server lsg
And i use vpn on my pc so I was connected to the public ip
No, afaik fabric has less performersnce then spigot
I will try to check the spark tomorrow
Ah bruh
Then it may be network problem
What’s ur isp?
"Not so stable" one hehe
But I saw tps decrease so i think it was the server still
What specs?
Well it seems to be generaly true but maybe in this weird scenario where half of the game features are not needed it may have some benefit
2gbs of ram and some older intel processor
Imma check in a moment

💀 💀 💀 💀
No shit
1.16+ requires like 4gb ram minimum
To host
And like 4ghz CPU’s
Yeah ik thats why i said that this thing runs surprisingly smooth
And it has i3-2310m @2.10ghz
But thats also untrue
You should just take the random lags and be thankful it’s not worse
💀
Or get a better server
Like you can have an smp for 4-7 players and be chill
Or migrate to one of those rust/golang recodes if it’s a simple game mode
Huh?
That sounds interesting
Server software coded in Better langs
certainly not the level of vanilla features but enough for some minigames
Hyperion is the #1 contender rn I think
Imma check that
Handled 1k players on one world afaik
But i think voicechat wont work there
Damn
Apparently it even does vc 💀
170k*
Obv not
Yeah i saw its prob the thing i need

Well apparently yes
Oh damn
Well hyperion doesnt support datapacks 😔
Otherwise it actually seemed to be the perfect oprion
🤦
bro
at this point
just host it on your phone
it will be more performant
😭
Hahaha
Ig ill just spend some time on the config turning everything thats not essential for ctf off
I wont be surprised that the system on my phone is heavier than my entire configuration with running OS and server lol
both my phones have objectively better cpus then my pc so
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
If you have any flagship it will be deff better then hosting on that intel server
An S21 ultra CPU's has about the same power as a badly cooled i7-7700 which is what a lot of budget hosts use
Yeah just checked some benchmarks and although those prob not the best thing to look on
Im still surprised just how cheap and powerful phones can be nowadays
Obviously hosting on them anything wouldnt make any sense cos even after all the pain of setting up server on a phone it will prob just spontaneously combust after a few months lol
Alr I found a 4 dollar fix
But still if anyone knows some interesting ideas of optimizing this thing Ill be more than happy to try
ur bottleneck will overall be hardware here yeah
Not using a 10yo Xeon?
Wait
That ran
Ram
Are you running this from an old laptop???
😭
Yeah lol
As i already said it goes surprisingly good
Nah thats boring
😭
At least get 2x 4gb Simmons
Donna
Dimns
But why
Fucking autocroorrect
Ram stick thingies
Having mismatched ram is bad
Yeah ik
But theres no other stick for 4 bucks over here rn
Just host it on your phone
ATP
Its gonna blow up in a month prob
Well at least tgatd be energt efficient
Cos rn I use a scrip to turn this thing off 3am to 11am
Not rlly
Just take off the battery
Apparently saving several happy meals a months that way lol
Hmmm
Maybe one day
