Monitor Real-Time Server Performance and Health

Understanding the Dashboard Charts

The main dashboard displays live performance graphs for TPS (ticks per second), MSPT (milliseconds per tick), memory usage, CPU load, and loaded chunks. These metrics update in real time, giving you instant visibility into server strain.

Reading Performance Indicators

  • TPS near 20: Your server is running smoothly
  • TPS dropping below 20: The server is lagging; check which systems are consuming resources
  • Memory climbing steadily: You may need to allocate more RAM or investigate memory leaks
  • CPU spiking: Heavy world generation, redstone contraptions, or mob farms may be active
  • Chunk count rising: More players exploring new terrain increases loaded chunks

Taking Action on Poor Performance

When you spot performance dips, open the console tab to check for error messages or warnings. Review active players and their locations—concentrated player activity in one area causes local lag. Use the file browser to check logs for plugin conflicts or crashes. Consider scheduling a world save or backup during low-traffic periods to avoid performance hits.
