James Lawrence Posted September 25, 2020 Report Share Posted September 25, 2020 Hello all, some friends and myself are thinking of getting into VS, and I wanted to host a server. I've hosted several other game servers over the years so nothing new there, however I can't find any info on the hardware recommended for it. Minecraft is heavy single threaded so lots of cores doesn't help as much, so stuff like that. Anyone know if faster vs more cores, or any sort of info on that? I'd like to eventually get more people on the server than just us. I've got servers laying around and I'm hoping they'll get the job done. Will be hosting with Linux btw. Thanks in advance.

redram Posted September 25, 2020 Report Share Posted September 25, 2020 ya @Tyron has multi-threaded in a few areas I think (I'm not a coder). He might be able to tell you more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Lawrence Posted September 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2020 That's why I was wondering, I can get an 8 core (16 thread) 2.2Ghz, or like a Quad core 3.XGhz. It just depends on what the code wants, just can't find any info about it online anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyron Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 A VS server should run notably better than a Minecraft server on the same hardware. It is still getting somewhat bottlenecked by single threaded performance when 20+ players are online, but we also don't have much data on high player volume servers. I wrote some specs to the bottom of this page now: https://www.vintagestory.at/selfhosting/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
