Optimised minecraft server configs for purpur, paper, spigot, airplane.

Server Performance Configs

Optimised configs aimed for big survival economy servers. That require handling a lot of players on a single server. But I highly recommend customising it for your needs using the guides listed below.

There are only 1.17 configs for now.

Guides Used

To optimise these configs, I used these guides:

• YouHaveTrouble's Guide
• Server Optimization Guide
• Paper Chan’s Little Guide
• Server Optimization Guide
• Anarchy Server Optimization
• Top 10 Things You Missed Optimizing
• Shockbyte Reducing Lag
• Purpur Documentation

Recommendations

Stay away from these plugins

• Stacker plugins - stacking entities causes more lag because the server is than always trying to spawn new mobs. I would recommend stacker plugins only for stacking mobs from spawners and disabling their AI.
• Item removal plugins - these "free performance" plugins are most of the time useless as you can "replace" them with item/alt item despawn rates in spigot.yml.

Check your timings

Create a timings report, timings can give you a lot of helpful information about what is making your server lag ext.

You can use BirdFlop's @Discord bot on their Discord guild that you cand send the timings report to, it will tell you a few good ways to optimise your server.

Useful Plugins

• Insights - Allows you to set storage, redstone, items limits to regions, chunks or islands on skyblock/oneblock servers.

• AntiRedstoneClock - Disables redstone clocks when your server TPS drops.

• Spark - Allows you to analyse your servers CPU and memory usage.

• Chunky - Pre-generates chunks for better performance on survival servers.
