This will improve queue times by canceling chunks when a player
leaves the radius of an async loading/generating chunk.
This matches behavior we had pre 1.13 for loading too.
Shared Hosts have been concerned over the increased CPU usage that Async Chunks
has introduced. We understand that shared hosts can't allow 1 client
to abuse the systme resources depriving other servers of cpu time, so we've
added some configs to allow hosts to force some settings.
Hosts, you may set the following SYSTEM ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES (NOT JVM FLAGS)
to change some behavior:
PAPER_ASYNC_CHUNKS_SHARED_HOST_GEN=1 - Enable Single Threaded World Generation (capping CPU Usage
PAPER_ASYNC_CHUNKS_SHARED_HOST_GEN=2 - Disable Async Chunk Generation - Please do not do this!!!
- Minecraft is moving towards asynchronousm per-world chunk generation itself. You need to prepare
- for this, so please do not disable async chunk generation.
PAPER_ASYNC_CHUNKS_SHARED_HOST_LOAD=# - Where # is Maximum number of threads to use on Chunk Loading
- This is a max, so your end user can reduce it more too. I suggest no lower than 2. Minimum is 1.
- These are usually much faster request, so outside of loading entire worlds, They usually do not
- get as much load. Paperby default uses CPU Core count * 1.5, so this may default to a higher value
- on shared host and you should override it with this value to say 2-4.
These settings will override your clients paper.yml options. Set as a system wide environment
variable to ensure all Paper clients respect your resource usage desires.
Resolves#1520
This should greatly improve performance by using a No Op lock
while on the main thread.
Vanilla always had a write lock on write operations, but we added
a Read Lock during Async Chunks to make concurrent writes non fatal
for Async Chunks.
This means we added on a bunch of over head to all chunk read operations.
This corrects that, as well as disabling the write lock while on main thread.
It is a general rule that you do not touch a chunk async once it is loaded
into the world, as we never had locks on the chunk before 1.13 even.
So once we are on main, we don't expect concurrent access to begin with,
so we don't need the write locks either.

this has technically been a longer standing problem, but if an async
chunk loads after a chunk has been removed from the chunk map, it would
be treated as any other spare chunk and kept loaded until Chunk GC kicks in.
This fixes that, but also obsoletes ChunkGC in that anytime we load a spare
chunk (a chunk outside of any players view distance), we will immediately
mark it for unload.
This should reduce the amount of spare chunks loaded on a server.

This restores Asynchronous Chunk Loading to 1.13, as well as adds Asynchronous Chunk Generation..
This provides a massive boost to server performance and should bring 1.13 back closer to 1.12 performance levels for pre generated worlds.
World Generation will now be faster overall than 1.12 since 1.12 did not have async generation.
