Low tick rate? | PebbleHost | Page 1

I'm running a very small server for like a month but its on a really old version of minecraft (minecraft beta 1.7.3), I have 4 GB allocated to it, no additional threads, no overdrive, but even with just one person there is a noticeable drop in tick rate when I mine/place blocks. I probably just need to upgrade the server but what do I actually need to do to fix this? Do I need additional threads or something?

astral rapids check your usage see whats being used the most

Im not sure exactly how to read this

#

I'm new to this sort of stuff

#

But its already like, a half second delay for block breaking/placement and im the only one on right now, since im preparing the server for 4-8 people

Is this while you are in the server?

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 9:23 PM

#

astral rapids Is this while you are in the server?

Yes

#

The low points is when nobody is on

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 9:23 PM

#

hm are you sure it isn't your Internet?

#

where are you vs the server

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 9:24 PM

#

My Internet is powerful enough to stream on both YouTube and Twitch at the same time without any issues so I really don't think it is, but I'll run a speed test

astral rapids where are you vs the server

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 9:25 PM

#

astral rapids where are you vs the server

North America server, I'm in like the Midwest USA

#

I think it was a 40 ping?

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 9:25 PM

#

hm

#

i dont actually have too many solutions for u

#

i mean id recommend 4gbs for the 8 players anyways

#

astral rapids i mean id recommend 4gbs for the 8 players anyways

Would adding additional threads help at all?

#

Or is there really nothing I can do

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 9:26 PM

#

not really ur on 1.7.3

#

are u on budget or premium

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 9:26 PM

#

Premium

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 9:26 PM

#

hmmm

#

give me a min

#

what java version are u running it on?

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 9:26 PM

#

Java 8

#

Minecraft Beta 1.7.3

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 9:28 PM

#

what server software r u running

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 9:28 PM

#

astral rapids what server software r u running

How do I find that out?

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 9:28 PM

#

vanilla? bukkit?

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 9:29 PM

#

Ohhh vanilla

#

Does bukkit even go that far back?

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 9:29 PM

#

whats ur view distance and max tick time in server properties

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 9:29 PM

#

indigo wigeon Does bukkit even go that far back?

ye i think so

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 9:29 PM

#

astral rapids whats ur view distance and max tick time in server properties

View distance 10, not seeing a max tick time

#

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 9:30 PM

#

can u use bukkit instead?

#

i could give u some flags to use as well

#

i think its just the worlds auto save

#

since 1.7.3 runs single threaded it saves the world on the same thread

#

every 2 secs

#

which freezes the gameplay

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 9:31 PM

#

Oh wow

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 9:31 PM

#

use bukkit and we can fix some stuff

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 9:33 PM

#

Im struggling to find a bukkit .jar for beta 1.7.3, could you help me try to find one 😭

#

Can I DM you a link im not sure if this is legit or not

#

But this is the only thing I can find

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 9:44 PM

#

if u download that ur pc might just hack into nasa

#

BROO

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 9:48 PM

#

indigo wigeon But this is the only thing I can find

search uberbukkit on github

#

or just Project-Poseidon

#

uberbukkit is a fork

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 9:53 PM

#

astral rapids if u download that ur pc might just hack into nasa

Yeah I thought so lol

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 9:53 PM

#

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 9:53 PM

#

astral rapids search uberbukkit on github

Alright I'll look into that

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 9:54 PM

#

not uberbukkit

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 9:54 PM

#

Oh okay

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 9:54 PM

#

its more maintained from what i see

#

it should also fix all ur issues

#

and any future issues

#

and u can also use any bukkit plugin for 1.7.3

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 10:02 PM

#

astral rapids it should also fix all ur issues

Okay its running but the tick rate doesnt really seem to be any better

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 10:05 PM

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 10:07 PM

#

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 10:07 PM

#

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 10:08 PM

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 10:18 PM

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 10:18 PM

#

astral rapids can u do /tps?

Yeah

#

Let me try

#

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 10:20 PM

#

well that seems like a u issue

#

thats a really solid tps

#

it wouldnt have such an issue

#

dm me the ip ill join and see

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 10:21 PM

#

astral rapids well that seems like a u issue

As in the server is fine its my computer/internet thats the problem? Or like "you're on your own" issue

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 10:22 PM

#

its ur computer or internet

#

internet seems fine

#

so network or computer

#

what client r u using

#

the server is running great and super smooth

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 10:23 PM

#

astral rapids what client r u using

MultiMC

#

But there are a couple of mods so that you can like, see peoples skins and I think a beta version of optifine is on it

#

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 10:26 PM

#

try without mods

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 10:26 PM

#

Alright

#

Yep, still have lag

#

Can you hop on and see if you're getting any lag?

#

Just to make sure it absolutely is me?

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 10:28 PM

#

im sleeping

#

the server has 20tps

#

and posadeian fixes the auto save

#

as well as having many other optimizations

#

so i highyl doubt its the server

indigo wigeon May 23, 2026, 10:29 PM

#

indigo wigeon

I mean this is my internet

astral rapids May 23, 2026, 10:29 PM

#

there is other factors

#

internet speed doesnt always determine ur network

#Low tick rate?
