Tekkit server running really slow.

[isoluta]

So I intalled tekkit on my dedicated yesterday, everything worked good and we had a good time, but when I woke up this morning.....

At my house all the machines and the quarry works at 10% speed and everything generally is very slow and when I tried walking over to my friends house my fps started dropping down to about 0.5 fps and got crazy amounts of lag.

Any suggestions to what could be the cause, or any fixes for it?

Did you leave your quarry running and was it connected to Buildcraft pipes? The quarry will continue to run after you log off but the pipes will not function when the chunk is unloaded. Blocks will be dropped on the ground causing a lot of lag in the area.

Does the lag exist everywhere? When I had problems with a large amount of blocks on the ground, the lag only existed in a ~100 block radius of the spilled blocks.

I would suggest looking around the quarry/pipes for a bunch of blocks on the ground.

I would also suggest that you shut your quarries off until you identify the source of the lag, you don't want to make the problem worse if they turn out to be the cause.

Wait, my quarry with buildcraft pipes run just fine when no one is logged on.

All I can see is his chest might of gotten full and then spit the blocks everywhere.

Items on the ground generate FPS lag when it reaches a certain number. We usually refer to it as a "leaky machine". A setup that dont have enought "overflowprotection" will generate FPS-drops of whoever loads that area. Eighter get worldedit to remove those items, or just be more carefull on how machines are set up.

I worded my post poorly. What I meant was that Buildcraft pipes drop stuff at chunk borders if the chunk is unloaded, at least they do in my experience.

We had a long line of pipes and items would only be transported about halfway before they fell on the ground unless someone was running along the pipes. I assume this is because the chunk was unloaded as they worked fine when standing next to them.

log in and type /remove items -1 . It will remove all items on the floor. If you get a load being removed then you have an item leak.

[Sp0nge]

It will only remove items in laoded chunks, just as ppl know.

Regarding the /remove items -1 command... it works a treat...

However, can anybody tell me what mod/component it is in Tekkit that allows the use of this command? Anybody know its permission?

I would love to give this permission out to several people, but don't wish to OP everyone to grant them the ability...

Cheers

Edit: Think I have just found the answer to my own question... WorldEdit I am guessing the permission would be "worldedit.remove"
