Hey everyone.

I need help with running my dedicated server with FTB Ultimate, here is my server details:

CPU: i3 3120 (the CPU works really well, this isn't an issue for me)
Memory: 8GB
Hard drives 2x1TB in RAID-1
Bandwidth: 100Mbit

I do run about 4 other servers but these are not really populated all the time so that's not an issue.

Here are some extra flags I'm using for FTB:

Code:
-XX:UseSSE=4 -XX:+AggressiveOpts -XX:MaxPermSize=128M -d64


Here are some of my issues:-

Memory usage:

FTB has 2.5GB dedicated to it, but even with 3 people online, the server uses up 50% of it's usage. Server restarts do help but the memory soon climbs back up.

Chunk loaders:

People want to use chunk loaders so they can use machines. I have no issue with this but chunk loaders themselves are causing performance and most likely memory usage issues. So tips on whats the best practise to use these would be great.

Mystworld:

Is it worth having this?

Banned items:

Can anyone suggest a list of items I should ban and give a reason why?

I've searched and tried different configs and ideas but I cannot seem to fix one issue without breaking something or taking something away from the player i.e. portal guns can cause CPU usage issues at times.

Thank you for any help you all can give me! :)

How is that memory usage bad? As long as it doesn't leak memory and begin to bog down (which I haven't seen FTBU do yet), just let it use the memory as it pleases. After all, you have dedicated 2.5GB to it.

Use ChickenChunks chunkloaders and limit the number of chunks each player can have loaded. You can even turn the offline chunkloading off (i.e. chunks are not loaded when the player is offline).

What do you mean are Mystworlds worth having? You can write some pretty neat ages with Mystcraft but you shouldn't overdo the number of ages (which leads to map size increase).
