Analyse timings with Spark

How to analyse Minecraft server performance using Spark.

Spark is a lightweight and powerful performance profiling plugin that helps server owners identify lag sources, optimise resource usage, and troubleshoot potential problems.

Download either the Spark Mod or Spark Plugin depending on which server software you're using. Make sure the version is compatible with your server version.

Head over to the Game Panel and select "File Manager" on the sidebar menu.

Upload Spark to either your mods or plugins folder depending on which version you're using. You now need to restart your server.

After the installation process is complete, enter the "spark profiler" command in your server console.

Wait for 10 minutes and then run the "spark profiler --stop" command.

After using the stop command, you will be given a link in the console. After clicking the link, you will be redirected to a page with your tick times report.
