My server runs on the following specs: Processor: Dual Intel Xeon 5650 CPUs (24 threads @ 3.06 Ghz (Turbo)) RAM: 2 GB ECC Registered DDR3 Storage: 2x 64GB Intel X25-E SLC SSD Disk Controller: RAID 1 (3ware) Uplink: 1000mbps Craftbukkit build #1124 Plugins: Automessage ChestShop CommandBook iConomy InventroySave LWC mChat mcMMO MyWarp NoCheat PermissionsBukkit Setrank Simplehome SuperpermsBridge Worldedit Worldguard (and eventually Guardian) So recently, after 1.8, my server has been lagging heavily. Any idea on what I can do about it?
Remove all plugins, wait until RB has been released, then install all plugins that have been tested to work properly. Right now just loading up plugins on a completely new huge update is like using plugins from 1.2 mc compared to 1.7.2, just wait until RB has been released and then slowly install plugins that have been compiled against that build. Oh, and you definitly need to upgrade to at least 4gb of ram, to run more smoothly, 8gb, otherwise, don't host, or get around 12 slots max.

once an RB is out and all plug-ins are up to date you can expect an increase in performance but more ram will make a huge difference. Its definitely the weak part of your server You should also try and find others small ways to slim down your server, such as using fewer plug-ins. And out of curiosity what OS does your server run.
Its the dev build of bukkit I have great tech specs and it never lagged until i got the dev build of #1134 a few hours ago
From Twitter : We're also looking into fixing the huge lag issues for big servers. Basically, the server sends (playercount ^ 2) packets every tick atm. Holy cow. Play 1.7.3 until CB for 1.8+ is stable ot play 1.8+ vannila.
I figured out the problem, my server is hosted at Xenonservers, but they tell me that the host node for my server is messed up.. So after a year with Xenon, I am switching my server over to Phoenixerve, I managed to make my private server (hosted by phoenixerve, holds 4 people) run 90+ plugins without lagging 1 bit. It was running Windows Server 2008, after I migrated the server, it now runs Linux. EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
