[loltayber]

All title said it how many MC servers can 1 server run?
Cause in the future i would like to buy a Xeon or just a i7 4970K but idk
i need some numbers how many MC Servers can it run so yeah.​

I have E5-1620v2, running 12 servers on it (1 bungee, 2 hubs, 9 playable servers) CPU use goes up to max. 55% (moving between 35-50%) when we're at 100-150 players online.
I hope this helps at least a bit ^^

I purchased that because we're expecting large amounts of players and we want everything to run smooth. (curently 130 online)

Your load is at 50% with only 130 players online?

:X

Between 35-50%, something wrong here?

That seems really poor for 8 logical cores, although, I mostly speak from Forge experience...

What's your TPS?

TPS 19.99 / 20, which is perfect.

Seems like the load is a bit too high in my opinion.

Hmm..

I have a dedicated box in my bedroom. If I ran 8 vanilla/spigot style servers on it at a time I would expect no less than 800-1000 players concurrent with 20 TPS.

The way I see it, I have a 4.7 GHz proc running 8 threads. If I had 64 GB memory, I could allocate about 7.5-7.8 gigs to each. That should be more than enough to host around a thousand players...

I am not sure how much I can run on that Dedi, but we'll see how much the load will be once we reach 300+ players ^^[DOUBLEPOST=1477843466][/DOUBLEPOST]

Is it possible that any of the plugins is causing any memory leaks and is overloading the processor?

Sure. Keep in mind I am by no means the expert in vanilla Minecraft servers. One thread on my machine can crunch about 20 players at full Forge modded endgame at 20 TPS. The next player has it kick the bucket down to about 18. It's diminishing returns from there, seeing about 11 TPS at 30-34 players.

Well, if I sum up what I run on my Dedi: Bungee, 2x Hub, 1v1, Agario, Bedwars, Build, 2x Factions, Skypvp, Skywars, Splegg and Vanilla. From those Bungee uses most CPU, probably because we're running BungeeTabListPlus with bridge on every single server which handles tablist prefixes (refreshes every 3 seconds)

Could be, however shouldn't make that much difference haha.

I used Skywars Reloaded which has so many memory leaks it caused my Skywars to go over 250% with CPU when the server had 10 people online xD #RipCPU
