blazing marsh
I am creating a modpack and I have an absolutely insane amount of code written for it (close to 10,000 lines with kjs) and I know I can optimize it. So I am wondering what are the most expensive events to use?
I know that PlayerEvents.tick is likely the most expensive so I have tried to remove that one entirely.

That question is reletively difficult to answer as there's no "expensive" event.
It's about what code you run inside of that event
and the amount of calls it gets
which varies a lot thorugh gameplay
You don't really need to worry that much about Startup events and events that run only once per world join
If you're using any tick event it may make sense to only actually run your code every second
that's what I'm doing for a project I'm making rn, it's running some quite expensive code, every second and as such it allows abouit 500+ blocks to be placed that run these expensive functions.
also if possible use java functions instead of js custom code ?
so instead of if(item.id == "myid") do item.is("myid")
imo it's more important to write performant and good code then not using specific events

If you're using any tick event it may make sense to only actually run your code ...
also in combination to this, make sure to split up your execution between multiple ticks, so instead of using level.tick use entity.age

~~so instead of `if(item.id == "myid")` do `item.is("myid")`~~
So for this I usually do something like if (item.id != "myid") return
Is that pretty decent?

I will benchmark if it's actually faster to use .is instead of doing js equals
