Discussion Can You Tell Me How Many Players Approximately Can Handle

[sm4rt]

Can you tell me if this machine can handle more than 300 players online? 

Intel Xeon E5-1630v3
2 Cores
230 GB Disk Space
8 GB RAM
UL TB Bandwidth
1 Gbps connection @200mbps
500 Gbps L3/4 DDoS Protection
Windows 2008/2012 R2 available

The only thing I am afraid is about the 2 cores and not 4. But please answer. 

project : acis(if it matters)

Yes, you would be fine even with one :D

indeed?

[sanneh]

Yes that machine is suitable for your needs.

Processor doesn't have that much impact, it's single thread. Correct me if I'm wrong :)

L2J isn't single threaded

It actually does.

Processor is what really gets stressed with L2j, and that's mainly because of the Threadpool and the tasks.

As xdem mentioned server is not single-core handled. You should pay attention more in HD. Better give attention on buying an SSD and a high-ghz processor than ram and more cores.

Mostly because its using threadpool that stress CPU and it does lots of writes on database (which need fast load and read speed)

2 cores are enough for l2j. I used to have an athlon 2 core server with hetzner and 500 players were no issue. CPU usage was barely 40% during massive tvt event (200 players)

Most people forget than L2J was developed on another architectural computer time, and there were already no problem. Nowadays with improved hardware + improved pack writting style (and Java self-improvements, notably whatever concurrent related), you can figure by yourself it can be only "better" than "worst".

 

And tasks can be mutualized in a lot of cases.

Still, as TK mentioned, teen years back ppl was OK with worse specs :D

Tryskell has a teen-dwarf as photo, who would trust his words anyway? I'm sure he spends his time searching for "how to programming 3d girls and make them real"  ^-^
