<\/p>\n# Heracles<\/p>\n
Technical optimization mod focused on drastically reducing MSPT, alleviating CPU load, and stabilizing memory.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
### \ud83d\udee0\ufe0f Optimization Features<\/p>\n
* **Crowd Control**: Optimization of collision tests and movement events to reduce lag in dense areas (players\/entities).
\n* **AI Throttling**: Dynamic regulation of CPU load consumed by mob AI.
\n* **Explosion Caching**: Caching of explosion calculations to prevent lag spikes during massive destructions.
\n* **Block Entity Stasis**: Puts block entities (furnaces, chests, etc.) into sleep mode when out of player range.
\n* **Multi-threading**: Offloading of AI calculations and network management onto *Virtual Threads*.
\n* **Network Management (QoS)**: Packet prioritization system and rate limiting to prevent bandwidth saturation.
\n* **Async Furnace Ticking**: Asynchronous processing of furnace smelting to free up the main loop.<\/p>\n
### \ud83d\udce6 Test Environment (Optimization Modpack)<\/p>\n
To prove its relevance, Heracles was tested on **NeoForge 1.21.1** within a modpack that already included current optimization standards. Heracles is designed to be layered on top of these mods, offering **additional** performance gains:
\n* **Rendering Engine & Graphics:** Sodium, Iris, Distant Horizons, ImmediatelyFast, EntityCulling, Dynamic FPS, MoreCulling.
\n* **Logic & Memory:** Lithium, ModernFix, FerriteCore, Krypton, Create Better FPS.<\/p>\n
### \ud83d\udcca Spark Profiling (60-Player Test)<\/p>\n
The following data was recorded under real conditions using the modpack listed above, with 60 simultaneously connected players and approximately 375 active entities.<\/p>\n
| Metric | With Base Modpack | With Modpack + Heracles | Gain Provided by Heracles |
\n| :— | :— | :— | :— |
\n| **TPS** | 20.00 | 20.00 | Stable |
\n| **MSPT (Median)** | 34.5 ms | 21.3 ms | **-38%** server load |
\n| **MSPT (Max Peak)** | 167 ms | 122 ms | **-26%** (freeze reduction) |
\n| **CPU Usage** *(15m avg)* | 11.45 % | 7.63 % | **-33%** processor load |
\n| **Memory (Process)** | 7.6 GB | 6.5 GB | **-1.1 GB** RAM consumed |
\n*Conclusion: Even when combined with the best current optimization mods, Heracles manages to reduce latency spikes while lightening the overall load on both CPU and memory.*<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
### \u2699\ufe0f Compatibility<\/p>\n
* **Create**: Fully compatible (tested without conflicts under real conditions).
\n* **NeoForge 1.21.1**: Integrates natively with the existing ecosystem of optimization mods.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
