Best Practices for Modded Server Performance
Mods that add extra dimensions can put strain on your server. Generate them first to catch any issues early.
If something breaks or two mods don't work well together, you can quickly roll your server back to a working version.
If you've got a modpack that's running well, it's usually best to turn off automatic updates so everything stays compatible.
Large automation systems, farms, and complex modded machines can put extra load on your server. Check the control panel from time to time to make sure everything is running smoothly.
