Running Minecraft Purpur: Plugins, updates and measurable performance

E

Estimated reading time: 1 min

Install Purpur, pin versions deliberately, test plugins individually and evaluate optimizations with timings rather than intuition.

MinecraftPurpurPaperServerLinux

Minecraft Purpur server (Linux)

mkdir minecraft && cd minecraft

Choose a currently supported game version from the official Purpur downloads page and replace GAME_VERSION:

curl -fL https://api.purpurmc.org/v2/purpur/GAME_VERSION/latest/download -o purpur.jar

The first start creates eula.txt. Read the EULA and set eula=true only if you accept it.

screen -S minecraft
java -Xmx2048M -Xms2048M -jar purpur.jar nogui

More options in purpur.yml. Docs: purpurmc.org
