Find the lag, prove it, fix it
LagCore is our own lag doctor for Minecraft servers and networks. It watches every tick, scans your chunks a few at a time and tells you exactly what is slowing your server down, with the evidence to show for it.
From "it lags" to the exact chunk
Names the cause: which chunk, how many entities or hoppers, and how many milliseconds it costs every tick.
See which plugin costs what
Tick time per plugin, plus a Spark report attached as evidence when the lag keeps coming back.
Fixes you approve
Send a fix from the hub. Anything with risk waits for a person in game to approve it.
No ports, no payloads
One plugin for Paper 1.20+ and forks like Purpur and Folia. It only sends measurements, never chat, commands or IP addresses.
Example finding, not a live server.
Per server. Want it on your server? Contact us and we add LagCore to your Minecraft plan.

Why host your Minecraft server with us?
Every Minecraft server runs on an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X with DDR5 RAM and NVMe SSD storage, hosted in the Netherlands. Minecraft runs most of its game logic on a single thread, so fast single-core performance is what keeps your TPS stable as more players join and more plugins load.
You manage everything from our game panel: switch between Vanilla, Paper, Spigot, Fabric and Forge, change your Minecraft version with the version switcher, install plugins with the plugin installer and manage worlds and backups. Your server is online within minutes after payment, DDoS protection is included and there is no contract.
How much RAM does my Minecraft server need?
As a rule of thumb: 2 to 4 GB is enough for a small Vanilla or Paper server with friends, 6 to 8 GB for a public server with plugins, and 10 GB or more for large modpacks. Not sure? Start small and upgrade at any time without losing your world, or try Minecraft hosting free for 24 hours first.
