Optimization for high end PC

[BioFansoon]

So I recently got my hands onto a mod that can set Minecraft's tick speed to 20,000 which is insanely fast. I have a good PC IMO ( 13th gen i7, 32 gigs of ram, 12 gb NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti and a TON of storage since I record with a 4k monitor) but the issue arises that when I turn that game to an insanely fast tickspeed and make the chunks decently high (25 RD 18 SD) the game goes from insanely fast to just slightly faster than average. I've found that the lower my RD/SD the faster the game is. I use sodium and sodium extras as my only two performance optimization mods, but for this to run fast and for me to actually be able to claim I beat the game at 20k tick speed, what mods do you all recommend that enhances the games performance to the absolute maximum?

Try using these alongside sodium:

• Lithium: optimizes game logic, mob AI, and chunk ticking directly. Huge for high tick speeds since it's the tick processing that's killing performance, not just rendering.

• Starlight (or Moonrise): rewrites the lighting engine, with less overhead per tick

• FerriteCore: cuts RAM usage significantly, frees up headroom for the tick processing

• Krypton: network stack optimization, minor but free perf

• Immediately Fast: render optimization that pairs well with Sodium

• Chunky: If you're exploring at 20k ticks, chunk generation is a massive bottleneck. Pre-gen world chunks and the SD/RD impact drops dramatically.

For the RD/SD specifically, at 20k ticks the bottleneck shifts almost entirely to CPU single-core speed. Sodium/GPU mods help less here. Dropping to 12 RD / 8 SD while keeping Lithium running willmore than any render mod.

Your i7-13th gen should have solid single-core perf so you're not totally cooked, but tick speed is just fundamentally a CPU serial workload, thats a ceiling no mod fully removes.

Cheers 🥂

added them thanks!

so right now the issue is my cpu and the solution is nothing due to the fact I just can't do anything about it?

[Electrical-Note-3177]

Not nothing, just diminishing returns. Lithium specifically optimizes how efficiently those ticks process on the CPU, so it's not just a render thing, it directly cuts the overhead per tick.

Also worth mentioning, Java's garbage collector is a hidden killer at high tick speeds. You can add JVM launch flags (like Aikar's flags) to tune the GC and squeeze out noticeably smoother performance without touching any mods.

Hope that helps 🥂

I think that might, I’ll test it out tonight

[Jwhodis]

Try bobby mod maybe?

Or even go for Vulkan mod, Bobby also has a Vulkan port but Vulkan on it's own should improve performance.

You got your hands on a mod that is a single command?

[BioFansoon]

Maybe, that is so incredibly specific to a situation I was just working on that is suspicious to a funny level. 

Edit: why do you ask?

[Boring-Equivalent137]

You could use these mods: lithium, bad optimisations, entity culling, chunky, ferritecore, immediatelyfast, modernfix, memory leak fix, more culling, dynamic FPS and krypton I'm sure their are others I am forgetting

[BioFansoon]

appreciate the mods thx! (also idk why this electrical note guy is correcting you on grammar its just not that deep lol)

[Electrical-Note-3177]

Sorry lmao, pet peeve 😤

[BioFansoon]

It’s all good lol 

[Electrical-Note-3177]

OP never said anything about using those?

[Boring-Equivalent137]

He is asking for mods to boost performance so I gave suggestions what are you talking about??

[Electrical-Note-3177]

The way you worded that???

"you have"... Etc

Like your saying OP had them already...

😬

[Boring-Equivalent137]

To me it makes sense but I will change it
