Is this much lag normal?

I have this minecraft 1.21.4 paper server with <40 online players and we are getting intense lag, I was told our server specs should be able to handle this much players but I feel like I missed something up when setting up the server. Spark report: https://spark.lucko.me/rhbgIgXngz
