    PerformanceTweaks - Disc Usage minimizer, And Other performance tweaks
    Version: v0.08

    AutoSave Stopper:
    Instead of writing every chunk to the disc every 2 seconds. This changes it to 30 mins.
    This saves the server from writing about 9KBps to the disc (7 writes, 2 reads per chunk, on a 3 person server).
    As well as saves about 2 calls to deflate every 2 seconds. (per chunk)

    Chunk Persistance:
    Change how long chunks will stay loaded into RAM, instead of unloading instantly when not used. This way naturally high traffic areas will stay loaded, yet areas that someone was just passing through will unload after some time. This means you need SOME extra RAM but that extra RAM will actually give you a boost in performance while reducing the amount of reading and writing needed for the disk. Win-Win. This part can be disabled via the config file.

    Monster Limiter:
    The Monster limiter will disabled 'natural' monster spawning when the number of monster gets above the max threshold. Then it will re-enabled it when the monsters get below the threshold - 100. Note: Monsters spawn in groups so this is a rough threshold. The limit can be set in the configuration. You can also completely disable this there as well. Let me know how this works out for you.

    Features:
    • Massively reduces needless disc usage
    • Chunks stay in RAM longer

    If you have any other ideas let me know I can look into if they are feasible or not.
    60 Seconds Without the plugin on a idle server:

    Average Disc Traffic: 1041Bps
    60 Seconds With the plugin on as idle server:

    Average Disc Traffic: ... none.

    It is in ticks, so 20 ticks = 1 second. 36000 ticks = 30 min

    This is my "/plugins/PerformanceTweaks/MonsterLimiter.yml" file
    Code:
    enable: true
    world:
        mainworld:
            allowmonsters: true
            allowanimals: true
            maxmonsters: 2500
    This is my "/plugins/MultiVerse/Worlds.yml" file
    Code:
    worlds:
        mainworld:
            animals: true
            pvp: true
            alias: ''
            blockBlacklist: ''
            worldBlacklist: ''
            spawn: -1923:7:-1204:354.5565:33.488346
            mobs: true
            price: 0.0
            environment: NORMAL
            editWhitelist: ''
            playerBlacklist: ''
            playerWhitelist: ''
            editBlacklist: ''
    OK problem solved. If you are using "MultiVerse" and "PerformanceTweaks" you must do the following to fix the issue.

    1. Stop server
    2. Move PerformanceTweaks.jar from plugins directory
    3. Edit Worlds.yml (see above) make sure "animal" and "mobs" are both set to true
    4. Start server
    5. Stop server
    6. Move PerformanceTweaks.jar back to the plugins directory
    7. Edit MonsterLimiter.yml (see above) make sure "allowmonsters" and "allowanimals" are both set to true. If you set this to false you will break it again and players will gain health over time.
    8. Start server

    If you need to control spec mobs from spawning you can use bmobs plugin. Most features still work.

    For stop regenHealth peacefull, juste get EntityRegainHealthEvent, and stop it if cause is REGEN (->peacefull). Can you update your code with this ?

    And please update the source folder.

    i've having issues with the chunk unload feature, since when ppl go afk and are still logged. The map and chunks unload while the player is still in that section. When you come back your either in the ground/falling or when you try to build it deletes things but doesn't actually deleted anything?

    Yep same problem here.
    tested this plugin because our server only has 2Gigs of RAM and it come more and more often to can't keep up spam, without anyone playing ... stupid VPS server having issues to handle the disc I/O i think.

    My problem is that sometimes w/o going afk i suddenly remove blocks with right clicks.
    but after a relog it's back.

    hey, just wondering does this still work fine with #1000 build?

    omnija

    i guarantee it's due to the plugin un loading the chunks and area while players are still in it. Making you stuck in a hyper space XD. Maybe a proper fix would be to unload/unchunk sections with out players in it.

    Me too : so I presume we can tell it doesn't work with Bukkit buil 1000.
     
  28. Well I havent gotten any bad chunks with this plugin, however, it does seem to kick people for flying pretty frequently.. like every 10 - 15 minutes.. Is this fixable?

    Love the plugin ! It really helps out !

    Lags like a B*** on build 1000, when I got rid of it, it went straight up to 20 TPS again :D

    The only thing I think works is the auto save, other than that, disable everything and just use it for chunk loading.

    Can someone take over this plugin and update it, making it faster/better?
