If you are running with 10GB or less memory for MC, you should not adjust these parameters. CPU may be slightly higher, but your server will be overall more reliable and stable TPS. These flags help keep your server running CONSISTENT without any large spikes. Going 3 minutes between GC pauses means your CPU spent 0 time on GC for 3 minutes.

(Graph provided by Zabbix Server Monitoring Software with JMX agent integration)ĭuring low activity, it will appear as memory is higher, as it simply takes longer between every GC pause - THIS IS A VERY GOOD THING! It only collects when one region fills up, so this is normal: Improperly tuned GC that ends up collecting Old Gen could see many 1 second long GC collections, which your players will notice!Īlso NOTE: Memory usage will be a saw blade / zig zag! G1 does not constantly collect. The goal here is to provide CONSISTENT, low pauses, and avoid Old Gen collections as much as possible. The goal of these flags is not to reduce overall CPU usage, as G1 does use more CPU than CMS, but this CPU usage is parallel, so not ‘directly’ main thread. Many servers in the Paper & Spigot community have started using these and reported improvements (And those who don’t notice, probably wasn’t doing too bad to begin with) These flags are based on my study, and have strong reasoning behind them to actually have an intended behavior change of the Garbage Collector and Performance Settings.

This insight was amazing and let me truly understand how the GC was behaving, and learn how to overall improve the garbage collector efficiency.

I tweaked various settings, studying the GC log files, studying the various flags documentation, and other performance tuning case studies, and then even better: using the VisualVM plugin VisualGC, that lets you visually see how each region of the garbage collector fills up and collects. I studied my server for about an entire month. Many months ago, I did an extremely extensive study into Garbage Collection and Minecraft, and got a really deep understanding on Minecrafts allocation behavior, general object life expectancy and collection rates.
