Server Overloaded?

Seedloaf is a free server, so having performance issues is normal. Luckily there are some ways to improve it!

Tip: What’s the Best Free Minecraft Hosting?

Pregenerate your world with Chunky

Generating new chunks is very taxing for the server. Therefore, pregenerating it enhances the performance significantly.

Using Performance enhancing mods/plugins

Mods:

Warning: Installing too many mods can hurt performance—choose based on your needs.

Plugins:

ClearLag

There aren’t any great plugins out there to magically improve performance. If you find some, leave it in the comments bellow!

Lowering the Render/Simulation Distance

The render distance is the amount of chunks displayed to the player (client). Ofcourse, the more chunks the server needs to show to the client, the heavier for him. Therefore, setting a lower render distance massively improves the performance.

The simulation distance is the amount of chunks which are being updated (movement, crop growth,…). Ideally, set this lower than the render distance.

Did I Miss Something?

Seedloaf updates often—if something’s outdated, let me know!
