How do I allocate more RAM/Server lag? (Please help!)

I recently started a server. My first attempt was very laggy and now I re-hosted the server and installed CLagg. It reduces lag for me but not for others, I suppose I need to allocate more ram?

Here's my computer spec:

Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T6600 @ 2.20GHz
2.20 GHz

Installed memory (RAM): 4.00GB (3.84 GB usable)

System type: 64-bit Operating System
===============================
Here's the script I have for the RUN.bat:

Echo OFF
SET BINDIR=%~dp0
CD /D "%BINDIR%"
"%ProgramFiles%\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xmx2000M -Xms2000M -jar craftbukkit-1.2.5-R4.0.jar
PAUSE
===============================

I'm assuming I need to add more RAM. How do I do that?

Help please!

 

Insert any number from the XmX_____M - Xms____M
from below

PHP:

512 = 512MB
1024 = 1GB
1536 = 1.5GB
2560 = 2.5GB
3072 = 3GB
5120 = 5GB

 

Thank you also, would 3GB be fine?

 

You could also do this:

Replace the 3 with the amount of RAM you want (in Gigabytes)

Code:

Echo OFF
SET BINDIR=%~dp0
CD /D "%BINDIR%"
"%ProgramFiles%\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xmx3G -Xms3G -jar craftbukkit-1.2.5-R4.0.jar
PAUSE

Not that it matters...

 

I see although, would 3GB run the server smoothly? Or atleast with little lag?

 

I would not suggest it IF you are playing minecraft/programs while the server is on.
IF it is s dedicated computer then yes go ahead.

 

Well, if your computer only has 4 GB, you would be max-ing out the RAM on your computer. (Assuming you're running minecraft at the same time)

What type of server are you looking to run? One for you and your friend? Or A public server?

 

Public

But it's alright IF I'm only playing minecraft?

 

Yeah, just use this then if you are playing Minecraft on the same computer your servicing on.

PHP:

1536 = 1.5GB

PHP:

Echo OFF
SET BINDIR=%~dp0
CD /D "%BINDIR%"
"%ProgramFiles%\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xmx1G -Xms1G -jar craftbukkit-1.2.5-R4.0.jar
PAUSE

OR

PHP:

@ECHO OFF
SET BINDIR=%~dp0
CD /D "%BINDIR%"
"%ProgramFiles%\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xmx1536M -Xms1536M -jar craftbukkit.jar
PAUSE

 

Servicing as in running the server?

 

Yeah.

 

Rent a cheap server... Are you on a desktop or laptop
Also to the lag go here and tell us your up and down results

 

Laptop at the moment, since I tend to move often.

Ping: 75ms
Download: 0.49
Upload:0.10

Also, I can't rent a server. As 5.00(More or less) a month is quite expensive in where I am.

I'll test it again tomorrow, the router isn't very close to my comp. I also don't have the high-speed. :|

Is that in kb/s or mb/s

Woah, Lag! I would not recommend starting a public server with that up and down. upgrade your internet speed buy contacting your internet service provider. then you can make a server. Otherwise your players will have ALOT of lag.

 

Alright thanks

Alright, although it works smooth when vanilla or little plugins.

 

It wont work smooth, when your server is over ten players. but ok. cool.

 

So my computer has 4gb of ram installed but i still have xp on it so it can only recognize 3gb. I tried to change my server to run on 2gb and it told me there isn't enough space, it also told the that when i changed it to 1.5gb. It runs when i have it set at 1gb. Anyone know why it would do that?
