Depending if CPU-usage is a concern to you or not, you can minimize your water-tower structure by half (about 400 eu/t), and just use a chunkloader and make more MFSUs to store the energy over time. I'd reckon you won't be using all of the power continuously. Just arrange your MFSUs serially or...

Well if it's working fine for you now, then just keep it as it is. I would feel bad if you got your a$$ handed to you due to lag. Lol. Do you have any spare machines that is capable of hosting a local server? My personal FTB server is hosted on a really shitty 2ghz Core Duo laptop and it works...

I still urge you to set up a separate SMP server on the same computer though, as opposed to using SSP. I personally don't encourage hosting the server on the same computer, but I still think that's better than using SSP. Lol.

If none of the water is flowing...I don't see why it would be a problem. If anything, you'd just get the usual computational overhead from all the calculations that are being done, given the number of water mills within a small confined space.

I think I read somewhere that it defaults to 3 unless otherwise specified. *shrugs* My setup was found on this very forum I think, I just forget where. The setup applies even if you're running the game on Linux, etc. So the hate for java may be OS-independent.

OP....this is what I've been using (client side) for about 2 months now with no issues whatsoever. Only time I crash is from portal gun portals and right clicking a machine when it hasn't fully loaded. -Xincgc -XX:UseSSE=4 -XX:+AggressiveOpts -XX:+CMSIncrementalPacing -XX:parallelGCThreads=4...

Garbage such as excess combs and bees from 35+ alvearies.

I'm not sure but after some googling....it may be easier to use a general hook as described here.

What IP did you use when setting up the server on the same computer? Did you try 127.0.0.1? I find it odd that it takes 45 seconds. Makes me wonder if it's a router-setting (one of those things I don't quite fully understand such as NAT, NAT-loopback, etc).

If you're playing SSP, a ramdisk's benefit is small. Its benefit is definitely in SMP.

While ramdisk helps somewhat on client-side, I find that the effect is more pronounced on the serverside, when there is heavy io load (e.g., imagine 10 players with gravichest armors flying with boost in 10 different directions on a server running on SSD vs Ramdisk).

Yeah, so essentially all combs will be trading currency in exchange for building materials.

This could work. However, I would make any type of automating items not be purchasable at all, and only be drops from regular world gen mobs. This means that even people who try to make mob farms using the bee effects (zombie spawner, creeper spawner, etc) would not be able to farm automation...

This is the setup that I use for my EU to MJ conversion. Make 2 of these and you have yourself 150 mj/t. Simply make more if you need more. (Something I discussed a while back, link here).

Thanks! I also found out that filler + saplings work in SMP, but not SSP.....What? Lol. So I guess this post is moot now! Hurray for sequoia tree farms. I hope that it works!

Fastest affects item production. Only maximum is related to pollination speeds, if I am not mistaken. And you don't need cacti-pollinating bees. There are no flower-type requirement, as far as I can remember. I got most of my trees using the default Flower requirement. If anything, there are...

I do like the idea of a turtle...but are there alternatives? My server reboots daily, which makes the turtle stop. Lol. I'm just trying to figure out how to automate a 3x3 tree. I know that the logger will be once piece of it (I'll have multiple and various heights, given the tree height)...

To me, until turtles can harvest rocky princesses, they will be subpar to the set-it-and-forget-it quarry. My personal server also reboots once daily (as a precaution since it is on a ramdisk), something which a quarry can recover from (in my experience of watching my buddy use a turtle, they...

I know...but I'm just saying...you've made it clear to us that you love being technical/engineerish in MC. Lol. Now I challenge you to use your problem-solving skills to help me in this thread, if possible (http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/mindcrack-1-4-7-unconventional-tree-farms.27414/).

I know, as do everyone on this forum...you've said that mantra quite a few times now....
