Server Ping Spikes and FPS drops

Hello! I am a moderator for a larger RP server that has seen some great success. However, we are running into some issues regarding LAG spikes and FPS drops on the server once we reach about 15+ people online at once. This is our server’s main issue as otherwise, all else seems to be fine, so getting over this hurdle would be a great benefit to us.

The only thing we’ve noticed thus far that is some clue or indication is that someone joining the server seems to temporarily spike ping and lower FPS.

Server Host Details

Location: New York

Processor: I7 Intel Core Processor

32GB of Ram DDR4 Ram

256GB of Memory

76/150000 GB of used Bandwith.

Let me know if any other information is needed, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Having the same problem on a private server I’m playing :frowning: you got any solution?

facing the same issue… with random lag spikes and low fps.

did you find any solutions yet?

we have a server on host havoc, maxed specs, totally vanilla, fresh wipe 14 days ago, and lag spikes up to 800 ms at worst, 450-500 spikes on average, and idles about 105 ish ms.

this problem kicked in on or before Jan 9th, 2024.
averaging 25-30 players, 50 at peak.

we have building caps, thrall caps, a great community, but it’s lagging out pretty bad now…

The FPS mentioned above appears measured by the physics engine. It only gave us a glimpse into the past. There is another tool that measures client side only, but since this thread is necro, best start another after you try above.
