Just wondering if anyone else is getting really really severe block lag when other players are out generating new chunks. I can have 10-15 people on the server with absolutely no lag whatsoever, but the second anyone starts generating new terrain, even if there is only 1 or 2 other players on.
I know that Minecraft's chunk generation isn't the best, but we've tried running a vanilla server, and had 5 people out flying full speed in creative generating as much new terrain as possible, and the lag is almost nothing compared to this.
When it happens, everyone who isn't worldgenning gets serious rubber-banding (when you hop back to previous spots) and 2-3 second block break lag. I've tried disabling ExtraBiomes, as I was told by a few people that it was the issue, but it didn't cause any noticeable improvement.
For anyone interested, the server is a hosted on a VPS, and is the only thing running on it. The box's stats are as follows:
- Intel Xeon CPU (8 cores @ 3.30GHz)
- 32gigs RAM
- Net speed (260mbps down, 340mbps up)
- The server is running off a 120gig SSD
I've also been told by a few people that Thaumcraft is the source of the lag, but I'd really like to avoid disabling that, as most of my players (including myself) absolutely love that mod.
Any tips or recommendations to try to figure out what is causing this would be greatly appreciated. I'll try and answer any additional questions people have about the system specs of the VPS.
- Thanks
