    Hello

    I am running some Minecraftservers, and I want to load all chunks to RAM so decrease disk usage and also make is possible to have long redstonewires over a lot of chunks.

    I know there is some plugins that does simmilar things, but not exactly this. For example there is one that read chunks coordinates from a text file and then loads them into RAM. If I make that file big enough, it will do the same as I want this plugin to do, but I don't think thats a good idea in the lenght.

    So, is this to much work to do, or is it possible? I think I can do some maintaince on it when Bukkit updates, but I don't have enough exerience with Java to do this alone.

    Thanks :)

    Unless you have well in excess of 8gb of ram, this is a silly idea

    I've got 24gb of RAM shared on two servers, so I think that would be OK. Maybe adding an option to only load chunks containing a spesific block, like redstone would be better, but I think that suits better in the PerformanceTweaks plugins rather than this one.

    There's no way to check what's in a chunk without loading it...

    Prevent chunk unload if redstone is present.

    Well, as long as the map is not to big the best would be to load the whole map into ram.
