i3-6100 server performance

[maycontainnuts]

From the internet I understand that minecraft, so I guess minecraft servers too, use only 1 core. Now im running a 1.10.2 forge server on a separate pc which has a cpu with 2 cores and 3.7Ghz.

The pc has a SSD and 8Gb of ram from which I dedicated 4Gb to the server.

How much mods should  my pc be able to handle without lag?

Because I have around 10MB of mods from which Ender io is the biggest (4.9MB) with a total of around 20 mods and im experiencing a lot of lag.

The server is for me and my friend only.

 

Im sorry if this is a bit vague, but I believe that my pc is supposed to handle a modded server just fine.

You are right, I just want to know if the lag I experience is caused by the specs of my pc or not.

So here is a picture of all the mods I want to use on the server.

Do you think that an i3-6100 and the aboved mentioned specs would be enough to run these mods without lag?

Again, the server is for 2 people only. We are not going to travel 24/7 and we are not going to build huge insane machines. Just a nice survivel with these mods.

But this is all pretty inrelevant for now, because my problem is that my server already lags when I don't do anything. I just load the server, I let the world render and I see the animals stuttering like hell. My friend hasn't even joined yet.

no offence, but you are telling me commun stuff that I already now, im just wondering if my specs are causing the problem or if I should look for other explenation like incompatible mods.

 

Sorry if my english is bad (i'm Dutch)

I get one too-long tick message when the server renders the spawn, but afterwards I don't get any  messages although the animals keep lagging. My internet has a download speed of 200Mbps and an upload speed of 20.6Mpbs, from what I hear that's pretty fast. Both my gaming pc and the pc which runs the server are connected to the same network with an ethernetcable.

I don't have any lag when I play singleplayer.

I get the same type of lag with a vanilla server, but it's a little less I believe.

Forge 1.12.2 server lags too.

I am 100% sure that both computers are connected using an ethernet cable. How do I run a ping-test between two machines?

This is what I get:

It appears that my firewall is blocking the connection somehow, cause when I disable the firewall I get:

Well, thanks for your help anyways.
