PerfoBooster 1.1

PerfoBooster delivers powerful server optimization through intelligent resource management, helping administrators maintain smooth gameplay even under heavy load.

Key Features: 

• Aggressive Despawning: Automatically despawn configurable entity types (e.g., bats, experience orbs) far from players to reduce entity load, while protecting named entities.
• Farm Rate Limiter: Control animal breeding and mob spawner output per chunk to prevent entity overload from farms.
• Inactive Chunk Unloader: Intelligently unloads chunks that are far from players and not actively used, freeing up server memory.
• Auto Save Optimizer: Optimizes the interval for saving inactive chunks, reducing I/O load during less critical periods.
• Chunk Load Controller: Restricts plugins from loading new chunks synchronously, preventing potential lag spikes (configurable whitelist).
• Laggy Chunk Unloader: Identifies and unloads chunks exhibiting excessive tile entity update activity if no players are nearby.
• Hopper Optimizer: Fine-tunes hopper behavior with smart throttling for empty/full hoppers, global transfer-per-tick limits, and optional per-chunk hopper count limits.
• Adjust Spawner: Dynamically adjusts mob spawner settings (spawn count, delay, activation range, max nearby entities) based on TPS, light levels, and player proximity.
• Player Redstone Anti-Spam: Prevents players from spamming redstone-interactive blocks, with configurable interaction limits and temporary blacklisting.
• Throttle Redstone Ticks: Limits the maximum number of redstone updates processed globally per tick to mitigate lag from large or rapid redstone contraptions.
• Automatic Garbage Collection: Triggers Java's garbage collection intelligently when memory usage exceeds configurable thresholds, helping to maintain stable memory.
• Dynamic View Distance Scaler: Automatically adjusts players' view distance based on current server TPS, reducing network and client-side load during lag.
• Tick Rate Adjuster: Selectively slows down the tick rate of specific game mechanics (e.g., crop growth, mob AI, portal activation, ice melting) to lessen their performance impact.

Commands: 

• /perfobooster (alias: /pb) - Shows the help menu with available commands.
• /pb reload - Reloads the PerfoBooster configuration.
• /pb status - Shows the current operational status of all optimization modules.
• /pb gc - Manually triggers server garbage collection.
• /pb load - Displays server load statistics, including entities, chunks, TPS, and MSPT (Milliseconds Per Tick).
• /pb sysinfo - Shows detailed system information such as memory usage, CPU load, storage, and internal config access latency.
• /pb update [check] - Displays information about the current plugin version and checks for updates (use check to force a new check).

Permissions: 

• perfobooster.command - Allows access to the base /perfobooster command and help.
• perfobooster.reload - Allows reloading the PerfoBooster configuration.
• perfobooster.status - Allows checking the current optimization status.
• perfobooster.gc - Allows manual triggering of garbage collection.
• perfobooster.load - Allows viewing server load statistics.
• perfobooster.sysinfo - Allows viewing system information.
• perfobooster.update - Allows checking for plugin updates. (Operators or players with perfobooster.admin permission may also receive update notifications on join, if enabled in config).

Configuration: 

The plugin offers extensive configuration options in config.yml:

• Customize aggressive entity despawning (specific types, despawn range, protection for named entities).
• Set limits for animal breeding and mob spawner rates per chunk.
• Adjust chunk management: inactive chunk unloading, auto-save optimization, laggy chunk detection (based on tile entity updates), and restrict synchronous chunk loading by specific plugins.
• Fine-tune hopper performance: enable smart throttling, transfer blocking, empty/full hopper optimizations, per-chunk hopper limits, and debug mode.
• Configure mob spawner parameters: max spawn count, spawn delays, player activation range, max nearby entities, spawn range, light level conditions, and TPS-based spawn rate multipliers.
• Control redstone: throttle global redstone updates per tick and configure player anti-spam for redstone interactions (max interactions, reset period, action bar notifications).
• Manage memory: set thresholds for automatic garbage collection and check intervals.
• Dynamically scale player view distance based on server TPS using configurable thresholds.
• Modify tick rates for various game mechanics: crop growth, mob AI, portal activation, ice melting.
• Configure the update checker: enable/disable, ignore alpha/beta releases, set check interval, and toggle admin join alerts.

Technical Details: 

• Full Folia support using region-based and async scheduling for optimal performance.
• Works on Paper/Folia servers (1.20.1+).
• Designed for minimal performance overhead.
• Compatible with most gameplay plugins.
