Server TPS Lag with multiple players (Origin SMP Modpack + other mods)
Heya guys, I got this issue with a server I'm running. Its a dedicated server from "Mine-Hoster" (German Server Host)
Recently I noticed that with more than around 5-6 players, the server starts chugging along way more than usual. I never noticed this at the beginning even with more than 12 players at the same time, but I believe its likely that the issue was because there weren't multiple bases with their own animal farms.
After using spark I got these results:
When I'm alone on the server: https://spark.lucko.me/lJRHIGHZOG
At around 5-6 online players: https://spark.lucko.me/F4e9zjYm7b
So checking the results, in the "all" tab, chicken seem to be the biggest issue. When I noticed that, we killed off some chickens, especially in a base that probably reached the maximum of chicken in one area already. The TPS did get better (before it was as low as 9), but it still seems to be the one that has the biggest issues of all the mobs.
In the "mod" tab, its visible that "pehkui", a library for resizing entities, impacts tps the most. Annoyingly, we cant remove it since we have multiple players using the inchling origin, which uses pehkui.
Is there any thing that I'm missing here and are there any possible solutions? RAM and CPU dont seem to cap or spike in the server manager. (Check attached image)
If you guys need any more info, I'm happy to provide.

What cpu do you have
The CPU is described as an Common KVM processor.Looks like you're using a VPS
Cant tell ya, like I said, I'm renting a dedicated server
Unless theres a server command that gives me specs that I'm not aware of
u cant unless u ask host
Common Kvm Processor is default proxmox
Oh yeah, I'd like to mention that I did update pehkui from 3.7.3 to 3.7.5 (the newer versions are not compatible with Fabric 0.14.19) and apparently that shouldve had "potential performance improvements" judging by the 3.7.4 changelog
but comparing to a spark profile from before the update, it is better, but not by much. From 15% to 12%
All I can guess is your CPU isn't performant enough.
Try finding what hardware you're using from your host first
Let me see if I still get an answer at this hour from support
Doesnt seem like I can get an answer at this moment, but I found their help site and apparently they're using 2nd Gen AMD Epyc processors
High performance, but not for minecraft hosting
:pepehands:
Hm, sounds like a migration then. Unless theres a way to mitigate the issues by doing something else?
nah not really
migrating to another host is your best bet
Other than obvious "lower view distance, reduce number of mobs you have, burn the host to the ground", I doubt it.
The latter sounds intriguing
:hehe:
is this another ovh incident in the making
:4371cough:
Unlucky, but understandable. Any recommendations? Mostly have EU players but US players are also pretty common, but they havent had any lag with this server so maybe it doesnt matter that much, its just regular SMP anyways, doesnt really need the lowest ping possible.
(If this isn't the place to ask, my bad)
