About

Gale is a fork of Paper. It is intended to provide strong performance. The project is in open alpha.

Current features

  • Faster threading system
    Gale comes with a custom threading system, that immediately makes terrain generation 2-3x faster than Paper on most systems!
    (this is up to 1.19 only, working on rewriting it to 1.20 too but there were some chunk system changes related to Folia, my apologies)
  • Micro-optimizations
    A number of micro-optimizations that do not change game mechanics from other projects, such as Airplane and Lithium, are also included. Every included optimization has been carefully tested and reviewed line-by-line; faulty or risky optimizations will not be added.
  • Fixes and options
    Gale contains fixes for a few small Minecraft bugs from Purpur, options to disable some console logs, the option to re-enable sand duping, and more. Every change is fully configurable, and can always be set to Paper behavior.
  • Variable entity wake-up
    Waking up inactive entities happens spread over time, instead of many entities at once, which makes entities feel and behave more natural.

Contributing
