hosting for a friend and community I'm in. The configuration for the java/minecraft server was ported over from an ubuntu system running on rented xeon hardware with much worse single core performance than what my 2700x should be giving. He turned off and cut down settings and the performance is still at 8-10 TPS on a FRESH world with a mostly pregenerated world (5,000^2 pregenerated). Performance improved a bit when we had the two guys trying to find world border stop but it's still way under what is expected considering the Xeon based server had large builds and multiple farms running 18-20TPS consistently with 5-7 players online. I suspect there's some configuration issue. I used the GUI to setup the guest OS and did not install any additional drivers. I can see /proc/cpuinfo on the Ubuntu guest shows all threads pinned at maximum, non-boosted speed (3.6GHZ) but the Host shows it boosting to the proper speed (4.3ghz) on whatever thread is getting slammed before it moves to another thread and boosts to 4.3GHZ. I can see on Unraid dashboard that HT is working as the maxed out thread sometimes is on the HT and not the "base" thread. I can also see that disk stats seem low from the guest OS? Even then the performance should be more than enough for minecraft at over 40MB/s random write/read. Quote Link to comment
