Split Optimized Plus (SOP) Server
The most powerful yet efficient Minecraft optimization pack.
🚀 Built for Performance
This modpack was designed from the ground up for maximum performance. SOP Server allows anyone to host a lag-free vanilla world, whether it’s a cozy survival server for 2 friends or a massive community server handling 1,000 players!
BENCHMARKS

I chose a low-end server as a demonstration of how efficient SOP can be.

📦 What's Inside?
To achieve extreme performance without altering vanilla gameplay, SOP Server utilizes the best server-side optimization and management mods available. By downloading this pack, your server benefits from:
- CPU, Tick & Entity Optimization: Utilizes Lithium, VMP, and Alternate Current to drastically reduce server tick times, optimize redstone logic, and improve player networking. Lazy-AI and Let Me Despawn aggressively manage entity performance.
- Memory Management: Uses FerriteCore to significantly lower RAM usage, allowing servers to run smoothly even on tight 1GB or 2GB memory constraints.
- World Generation Performance: Optimizes chunk generation with C2ME, Noisium, and ZFastNoise, eliminating block-lag and rubberbanding when players explore new areas.
- Network & Chunk Performance: Krypton optimizes the network stack, while network patchers like Packet Fixer and Crash Exploit Fixer keep the server stable and secure.
- Server Administration: Comes pre-installed with Spark for profiling, LuckPerms for advanced permissions, ServerCore for dynamic lag management, and Chunky for easy chunk pre-generation.
- Quality of Life: Features server-side improvements like Clumps (XP orb lag reduction), Blossom TPA (teleport commands), Simple Voice Chat support, NetherPortalFix, and No Chat Reports.
🧩 Why "Split"?
True optimization requires addressing both the client and the server independently. That’s why SOP is "Split" into two distinct packs! SOP Server pairs perfectly with the SOP Client pack, giving both ends exactly the mods they need to run flawlessly.
But don’t worry, SOP Server will still heavily optimize the experience even if your players are joining with a completely vanilla client!
💻 The SOP Server Experience
The server edition is tailored to run incredibly lean, giving you maximum performance whether you are renting a high-end dedicated server with 16GB of RAM or hosting on a budget instance with only 1GB or 2GB available.
Beyond raw performance, SOP Server includes carefully curated server-side Quality of Life (QoL) improvements and essential utility tools. Server admins get access to powerful management and diagnostic mods (like Spark and LuckPerms) to keep an eye on performance and manage the server with ease.
🤝 Universal Compatibility
While the absolute best experience comes from players connecting with the SOP Client, we know you can’t always force every player to mod their game.
Because SOP is completely split, it features zero required client-side dependencies. Anyone can join your server using a completely vanilla Minecraft client or any other modpack of their choice, and they will still benefit from a drastically smoother, lag-free server environment.
