    Lag Test 3,000 TNT / With and Without Ptweaks (356MB server)



    ======================================================


    About:

    Ptweaks is plugin to optimize your server, by changing chunk loading algorithms. Ptweaks is also huge on ram reduction, if you run a low ram server, or just want the improvements; Ptweaks is for you. Ptweaks also stops crashing and lag from TNT, and enables complex methods to improve your server in almost every aspect. Running a 16GB or 512MB Server, Ptweaks is for you.


    Testing:

    We ran 7 large plugins on a small 256MB server without PTweaks. The server couldn't load chunks, there was noticeable amounts of chat and block lag. The server was all around unplayable. We enabled Ptweaks and within minutes of being on, the chat and block lag we're gone. Chunk's loaded normal as they would on a 3GB Dedicated server.


    Features:

    • Massively reduces needless disc usage
    • Loads Chunks faster
    • Priorities Chunk's in the direction your facing, To ensure smooth game play
    • Keep chunk's loaded at a configured amount
    • Chunks with higher activity such as a spawn, stay loaded to massively reduce Ram usage
    • Limits Mobs and Animals to a configured amount
    • Disable Mobs and Animals
    • Check Current Ram being used
    • Config file's for each part of the plugin
    • Dupe TNT Packet's, So TNT will no longer cause any server side lag
    • Add's highly advanced Chunk Algorithms
    Feature Description:

    AutoSave: Instead of writing every chunk to the disc every 2 seconds. This changes it to a custom time that you want, Default is 30m. 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:
    This is a fully custom feature, that can be turned off. It will change how long chunks stay loaded. Chunks with lots of visitors will stay loaded longer, and not have to render again and again. This adding lots of performance to your server. This works for people just joining on that chunk or someone walking into it, So a spawn point works great with this. You can change how long they stay loaded, and how fast they unload. Default works for most though. This will no longer need extra ram.
    ======================================================
    Monster Limiter:
    This is another fully custom feature. You can change it to a certain amount of Mobs spawn, or if they spawn at all. You can turn Mobs off and animals on, or vice versa.You can set a minimum mob limit and a maximum, That the server wont go below or above. Fixing some lag that can happen from mobs spawning or not spawning at all.
    ======================================================
    SaveEdits:
    When the server starts to save, It slows down the processes to normal speed, Causing the save to be instant.
    ======================================================
    Ram Saver:
    Based on how the Ptweaks edit chunk loading, Ram drastically goes down. With the added features, such as slowing down disc usage. You can see up to a 80% Improvement
    ======================================================
    Chunky:
    Chunks in front of you get a higher priority too load then the ones to your side and back. Making smoother game play, and instant chunk loading.
    ======================================================
    TNT Edit:
    This makes TNT only really have to load once, then it is saved until the TNT packet stops. Causing TNT cause no lag at all, Under 10k TNT, which it will start to give off lag. TNT packets are also saved, after the first and just duplicated so you dont get spammed with them, and causing lag.
    ======================================================
    Installation:
    1. Download Ptweaks
    2. Stop your server
    3. Put Ptweaks.jar in your Plugins directory
    4. Start Your Server
    5. Edit Config's to your liking or leave default

    Hello, I was wondering if this is compiled to Java 5. I was wondering how good it is on a weak server.

    Mrchasez

    Yeah it should, I haven't tested though.

    Depending on what you like.
    I think NoLagg has gotten too messy.

    Java 6, Although using Java 7 is fine.

    You could add 'keep spawn in memory' it should do it for all worlds.

    This plugin stops chunks from unloading as well. Or it's just my error up above. My server had over 100,00 chunks loaded in 1 world earlier today, I had to restart it because the CPU and the RAM was running quite high. So can you fid this please.

    to be honest, i was very sceptical about using ptweaks, but I'm highly surprised how well it works, upon start-up, when using multiverse, the server runs using 700meg+ now only runs at 200meg+, now i can safely run my client at full graphical settings :) thanks for producing a needed plguin

    Yes, You are running with 1.2.5 Which is not compatible yet!
    I am working on another really big update right now!

    Make sure your using latest version, on 1.2.4.
    The beta builds had issues.

    Glad you like it!
    I have put a lot of work into Ptweaks, so its nice to have good feedback.

    You can leave it at default if you want ^-^

    Yes and No.
    It will still enable, however you will get errors.
    I am working on a big update.

    I am sorry, Ptweaks isn't responsible!

    I installed this plugin yesterday everything works fine, My server uses less RAM now almost 30% less! And my CPU is almost the same (a bit higher 5%).
    But today i got a wierd Bug. When someone uses /spawn, /home etc.... (teleport commands) The text is displayed but they dont teleport. Can you fix this in your next Uppdate?
    I use the following Plugins:
    Towny
    Essentials (the basics: chat,bridge,groupmanager,chat,spawn,protect)
    Groupmanager
    Worldedit
    Worldguard
    Mcmmo
    lockette
    ptweaks
    economypunga
    coredata
    Combattag
    Votifier

    its a 1.2.5 sever (i use McmyAdmin)

    And when someone Claimed with Towny it said : Plot Blocked
    Everything worked after a restart. but i dont want this Bugs again so please take a look at it :)
    Thanks in advance!

    My server: 78.72.141.210:25565

    We are updating soon.
    However, I can't imagine its from Ptweaks.
    There is nothing in the code to stop Spawn, Home, or any other command.
    Make sure your not blocking them in a worldguard region. That would explain the plots being blocked too

    ''Remove all server lag!'' If I light up 10 million blocks of tnt on a 16GB server with your plugin... thats wont stop the lagg trust me :)

    Mrchasez

    Is that supposed to be a joke?
    Also it states TNT up to 10,000.

    If you can get 10 Million TNT on a server, Show me.

    although i only r saying on past memorys and redownloading it now (it may be fixed) but the chink loading was TERRIBLE!! even in front of me i often actuelly fell OUT THE WORLD!!!
    thinking on that, i now realise that its stopping the actuel map from generating!!!!

    it is very annoying..... and i kept dying.....

    however, big improvment on RAM, it went (according to lagmeter it would actuelly be less) from 800MB norm ram to 600MB norm ram... it speeded up my server alot...

    going to TNT... my OPs always keep crashing the server by accident!!! this would be good.. and hopefully it wont lag other players.

    we will see.. :D

    Sorry for not updating, I am waiting on another plugin this relies on to update so i can update the code in this.
    The new update has really done, besides that part.
    I just can't release anything.

    I used my own flying plugin, SimpleFly, and when I started to fly, my server started spazzing D:.
    It's not my plugin, i'm positive about that, and the only other plugins that are on are iConomy, PTweaks, and PermissionsEx.
    I'm using 1.2.5.-R1.0

    The monster limiter doesn't work at all for me, it actually seems to add more mobs. I set it to 50 just to test it and there's almost 2,000 mobs with 6 people on.

    I have this problem too.
    I can't use /ptml and other /ptml commands.
    It say me "/To Disable Mobs, Set maxmonsters to 0.
    I can only use /ram.

    Thank you anyway for this great plugin!
