Is there anyhwhere that has any kind of benchmark for different hardware when hosting minecraft servers? I’m considering migrating to my homelab from a sparkedhost instance but I dont know if it’ll be worth potentially worse performance (Ryzen 7000-series x3 vCPUs versus my i5 9500 running concurrent services)
I successfully ran a modded java minecraft server for me and my friends for years on an ancient thinkstation with a xeon E5430 (quad core 2.6 ghz w/ddr3 ram) doing double duty as a NAS. That old xeon couldn’t carry your i5’s jock on single core performance, which is your main concern. As long as you’re not running huge kitchen sink packs with giant complex bases I think you’ll be fine.
