Are you saying that vanilla server is plenty optimal?
Is Forge looking at helping modders move to threadable mod architectures? Or ways of writing mods to support higher performance?
Currently Spigot supports ore obfuscation with performance that no mod can match. Will luacs1998 side project do that, or are you saying Forge will have to ore obfuscate thru mods, if we dont use spigot?
luacs1998; with Forge Essentials relatively mature, we can almost drop bukkit now, right?
