The save task is causing a lot of lag, and I was wondering if it could be lowered somehow? The TPS drops are because of it I believe

How often are you running the save task?

#

I assume that's what the interval means

#

Ohhh wait I marked the wrong area on timings overview, the lag is not caused by citizens, sorry

#

It's caused by some Minecraft::spawn - tracker stage 2 (SELF)

Info: spark

The "timings" system within Spigot/Paper is incredibly inaccurate for use with Citizens, and cannot be used to diagnose any issues related to Citizens. It notably blames Citizens for a significant amount of entity-related lag (that isn't in any way caused by Citizens).

For accurate timings, you need a Java profiler. There are a variety of profiler options (WarmRoast, YourKit, VisualVM, ...), but the simplest to use on a Spigot server is a plugin named "Spark" that embeds WarmRoast, which you can find here: https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/spark.57242/.

To get a spark report, type /spark profiler start, then replicate lag issues (for no more than about a minute), then /spark profiler stop, and post the link it gives you.
