Server performance

Frames per second, entities and memory, asked of the server itself.

This server has not answered a direct query in the last 48 hours.

Note: 48 hours: hourly readings. 30 to 90 days: one point a day, with the day's average and lowest fps, most entities and most memory. From asking the server directly; low fps and a climbing entity count mean lag.

No wipe seen yet.

Note: Peak: the most players in the first 48 hours. Crowd: whether every day of the wipe kept at least half that peak, or the day it fell below. A new world less than six hours after a wipe is a restart, not a wipe of its own.
