Hi, i got this strange problem. I'm running Bukkit server with these plugins: My problem is, that server is using too much processor insted of RAM, what do you guys think? (giving stats: RAM: 2609 MiB / 5120 MiB Processor: 145%) CB:1.0.1-R1)
That's how Minecraft is now. RAM is barely used and CPU use is through the roof with 1.00. HawkEye, xAuth and Citizens would be your most CPU consuming plugins though. You can install NoLagg, which keeps chunks in memory and reduces CPU load, whilst using more RAM. Other than that, the only thing you can do is purchase a better CPU.
@Nathan C Yea, i use NoLagg sometimes to reduce but i don't like it much. I know that previous version of MC(bukkit) needed more RAM, not CPU.
I use 1.0.0-RB and my CPU never goes past 90% with 40 players online, though it uses around 6GB RAM. Your processor probably isn't the best.
I didn't say i7's were bad in general, I just think that their bad for hosting a game server. Their a desktop processor basically. Try using an AMD...
Thanks god, i finally get err message: (any ideas?)

The out of memory error is either caused by not allocating enough memory in your start line, or from a plugin acting badly. Read time outs are definitely caused by a plugin. I suggest updating your server to the latest RB and updating ALL your plugins to the version that supports the latest RB.
Intel CPUs are far superior to AMD CPUs in general. An i7-2600 will blow away anything else save a high end Xeon or one of those 16+ core new AMD CPUs (well, technically the 12 thread i7s would beat it, but nobody wants to fork over $1k+ for a single desktop CPU). I know of several people and providers offering/using them, and they're actually quite amazing processors. I have one in my desktop, it's awesome. Now, if you're talking about desktop vs server CPUs... Well, I don't see any advantage to AMD, they're mostly desktop, most of the server CPUs these days are made by Intel, with the exception of a few AMD offerings.
