Is it normal that DH pregen is taking that long ?

Hey, i'm currently trying to pregen a part of my world with the DH pregen tool but it takes so long that i don't know if i can do anything to make it faster ? i have an intel i7-13700KF (16 cores,24 threads) it is running on a local server in order to not let my client turn and takes (and also it uses my E cores and not the P cores) i'm using "DistantHorizons-forge-2.3.0-b-dev-1.20.1"

You are trying to generate an insane amount of chunks So yes expect to be waiting a year for it all to complete DH doesn't control what cores it uses the OS does

but when i use other generator it's way more faster, but i guess it's normal so

Nice! Now you'll only be waiting a few months instead You used chunky?
Popi
PopiOP6d ago
that's right x) yeah but it's a pain to balance the speed of gen with the speed of DH

Chunky calculates it's radius in blocks, so you generated a radius of 5000 blocks with chunky, while DH is trying to generate a radius of 5000 chunks, which is way way more

i just saw that yeah so it's multiplied by 16 i am right ?
Puhpine

The amount of chunks? No
Popi
PopiOP6d ago
the difference between blocks and chunks
Puhpine
Puhpine6d ago
Then yes
Popi
PopiOP6d ago
then 625 will do the job thx
Puhpine
Puhpine6d ago
Yep Np!

it's not that slow after all ... when i correctly understand the difference between chunks and blocks (well it's late night i'm tired sorry)

Well you're not the first one not knowing chunky doesn't use the same metric as DH Far from Also if you're just pregenerating for DH, dont use chunky

How big are are u tring to generate
Puhpine
Puhpine5d ago
10000 chunks, as you can see in the screenshot
Astroble

Just did that so it can generate as many as positive Possible*

then isen't this only 100 render distance or is it refering to 10k *10 k If anyone really wants 10k *10k , i would not even try withot a threadripper like thing "-"

it's 20k*20k "Generated radius" which is around 6x 4096 render distances
shaurya
shaurya4d ago
Can even a thread ripper manage that "-"
Puhpine
Puhpine4d ago
If you wait long enough, any cpu can do it
shaurya
shaurya4d ago
dude my pcc will take like a decade to complete that job
Puhpine
Puhpine4d ago
Lol
shaurya
shaurya4d ago
like 20k * 20k = 400000000 CHUNKS Assuming my laptop got 10 threads ( its 12 but for convenience purpose) 1 thread will solve 40000000 chunks assuming each cunk takes 1 second ( even that is not happening but still) thats 40000000 seconds or 1.26 YEARS ... Also, Hello, Long time no see 🙂 thats if you even remember me
Puhpine
Puhpine4d ago
That's a long time No sorry

maybe now idk
Puhpine

Oooh Yea I remember now
shaurya

ah really nice the threadripper with 200 cores ( 192 exactly ) will take 2.31 days "-" well actually half cause threads are double
Puhpine
Puhpine4d ago
jees
shaurya
shaurya4d ago
DId anyone tested a threadripper on dh till now ?
Puhpine
Puhpine4d ago
probably, but if so i forgot

Thats a epyc server cpu, not threadripper threadripper only comes with 96 cores at max the epyc 9965 is the one with 192 cores/384 threads

Oh sorry I diden't notice i was missing on such a big thing brh I m stupid
