how much RAM should I use?

My server machine has 24gb of RAM. For a 20+ person server, should I just use like 18 to leave some for the OS? Or should I keep it lower if it might not need that much? Thanks

Tbh you won’t really need more than 12 gigs, 16 max. Afaik it’s very overkill and won’t do much regarding performance Might even slow it down cuz of a lot of garbage collection

It really depends on the kind of server you want to run

It’s just vanilla with purpur SMP Loaded all of the chunks beforehand
