    Hi. Thanks For Looking At My Post!

    Now,
    Some People on my server has been experiencing lag as-well as i sometimes. i have great internet connection so that's out of the question.
    My pc has : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 870 @2.93 GHz
    6.00 GB (RAM)

    TBH i don't have a clue what the above means really :D

    I currently have a max of 30 on my server. as i had to minimize the amount due to so much lag.
    I have 30 plugins on my server.

    in the cmd i have been getting random error messages but it seems to have been fixed as i updated world guard. can my PC run 30 people? is it there connection? i don't understand what the problem is!
    Thanks to anyone who can help me here.

    Could be from Orebfuscator, but there's not a lot you can do about that.

    Are you receiving any errors in the console?

    Install LagMeter, how many ticks are you getting, and how much RAM is allocated? If its not green, let it render the data, etc.
    If you're not allocating enough RAM (like a gigabyte, though I am sure others would suggest more, they have the money to buy such luxuries), then launch it with a script (.sh/.command) and allocate the RAM there.
    If you're running on the same computer, don't. Use a different computer, it will separate the Graphics and the Processing, making it much faster.
    If you've got a slow internet connection, that's why - Minecraft needs a sizeable amount of network bandwidth.
    Just an aside, the number of player slots has nothing to do with the server load.

    Well, that CPU is not the best...........BUT it should be able to handle 30-50ish players without lag.

    With that being said, I think your issue lies with your plugins. Orebfuscator is really hard on both the disk I/O and the CPU. Try removing that to see if performance improves.

    You're running out of RAM to address players. Allocate more RAM.

    The server needs more RAM. It needs to be allocated more than 900MB of RAM. Something like 2-3GB would be best for your current setup.
    The launch script's Java invocation line should look like this (if allocating 2GB of RAM):
    Code:
    java -d64 -Xms128M -Xmx2048M -jar craftbukkit.jar nogui
    EDIT: I would actually recommend up to 4GB of RAM if you have 6GB.. unless you are playing on the same computer, for which you should decrease to 2GB.

    You need to make a script to call the craftbukkit.jar file. You should have one if you're running a server. You need to increase the amount of RAM allocated to the server.

    More Info: When you set up your server, you remember making the launch.bat? (Wiki's Windows' Step 2). There, edit it using notepad and change it from whatever you have set starting from the same line to the "java -d64 -Xms128M [... blah blah..]".

    You already have 2GB according to that.

    You see the allocated amount of RAM on the server? And consider the fact that there are 30 people on it.

    Yes, however, the link there (http://i50.tinypic.com/znmruf.png) clearly shows that LagMeter is only reading that 900MB of that 6GB Hardware RAM is being allocated to Bukkit.

    Specs: Intel i3
    1gb given for 50 slot server (whole server has 16gb)

    People, please allocate your RAM along a formula like
    if x = number of players, x*100 = RAM allocated. its a simple rule that really solves alot.
