Huge load

[AuroRacing]

• Genisys: 0.15.4
• PHP: 7
• Server OS: Debian 8
• Game version: 0.15.4

8 core 13 GB RAM, online 90+. But why load 100% TPS 1. Plugins, not a lot... Here's the timings https://timings.aikar.co/?url=23081324

Help me.

[dktapps]

Simply put: way too many players. Can you post your pocketmine.yml please?

[Muqsit]

Um an I the only one wondering why the RAM is such a unique number. 13 of all numbers... It should be a multiple of 2 excluding 14 right?

You have too many tiles close to your spawn. Do /status and find out how many tiles are loaded. For you, the normal amount must be 8k

@Muqsit 13GB RAM because we bought so much... Here is the screen /status

[dktapps]

3048MB ! == 13GB Maybe try increasing your async-workers (change from auto to 8)

[buchwasa]

This may help, try converting the world to mcr

[ZedCee]

@TheAppleGamer Please don't spam. His configuration is already set to mcregion. Thus would be mcr. Anvil is nearly the same as mcregion, but by design, built to run faster. That's mca.

See my comments on #1591 regarding anvil benefits over mcregion, and various things that can lag a server besides the map format.

[buchwasa]

@ZedCee I can almost guarantee that the map format causes lag

[ZedCee]

@TheAppleGamer Before posting comments, read everything prior! The pocketmine.ymlvery clearly states mcregion.

There is no such thing as an almost guarantee, either you can or you can't. Your past issues would not have been closed otherwise. (You couldn't provide, and we could not produce, enough evidence to the fact). Please cease generalized commenting and arguing in other users issue tickets or you will end up banned. Use our chats if you wish to discuss map formats.
Issue tickets are not a public forum of discussion, they are here to solve provable problems.

@AuroRacing I apologize for any confusion this may have caused. Did the suggestion provided by @dktapps, increasing the main-hard-limit: and changing toasync-workers: 8 in your pocketmine.yml, help you with your load?

[SleepSpace9]

Just seen - the period for garbage-collection is set VERY low: period: 120

By default it's 36000 ticks!
