Global statistics

Every server measured counts here, whatever its reports' visibility: private, unlisted, anonymous and expired reports included, each server once. A figure about a group of servers is only shown when the group counts at least 5 servers. No report is shown on its own, except the latest public ones at the bottom of the page.

Servers by rank

10 servers, each with its best run scored with version 8.3.0 of the rules.

Ranks use the thresholds shown on every report. They are set from public reports, so the whole pool does not spread evenly across them.

Scores by software and version

Total score of each server's best run, scored with version 8.3.0 of the rules. Each bar spans the middle half of the group's servers (25th to 75th percentile) and the dot marks the median, in the colour of its software.

Medians by CPU model, all measurements

What makes a difference

The total score of each server's best run (scoring version 8.3.0), grouped by what that run reported. Groups of fewer than 5 servers, and servers that did not report a value, are left out.

These are correlations, not causes: a server with more memory often also runs on a faster CPU or with a better host.

Each bar spans the middle half of the servers (25th to 75th percentile) and the dot marks the median, written on the right; the dashed line is the median of all servers, and the tag says how far each group's median sits from it. All six panels share one scale and each characteristic keeps its colour across the page. The number of servers in each group is in the figures below.

Test by test

Each of the eleven tick tests the score reads, on every server's best run (scoring version 8.3.0): the median TPS, and the average MSPT a quarter of the servers stay under (25th percentile), the median, and the one a quarter exceed (75th percentile). Lower MSPT is better.

Heaviest test: Mob AI, 213.5 ms per tick for the median server; 0% of servers hold 20 TPS on it.

“Hold 20 TPS”: the share of servers whose average TPS on the test reaches 19.8, the point from which the score gives a test its full TPS value.

The MSPT bar reads from 0 to 50 ms, the time a tick may take before the server falls behind.
