Filter and Focus on Significant Performance Issues

Reducing Noise in Your Data

When profiling, the mod tracks everything affecting TPS—including minor impacts that don't meaningfully slow your game. Use filtering to cut through the clutter.

Adjusting the Impact Filter

In the mod settings, enable the minimal impact filter to hide processes and entities that contribute negligibly to lag. This reveals only the performance problems worth addressing, making your analysis faster and more actionable.

Setting Distance Limits

Adjust the maximum distance setting to control how far away the mod tracks entities and blocks. Reducing this distance helps you focus on lag sources near your current location rather than across your entire loaded world.

Refining Your Workflow

Start with aggressive filtering, then gradually relax settings if you need more detail. This approach lets you quickly identify major lag sources, fix them, and re-profile to confirm improvement without being overwhelmed by minor performance variations.
