ZeroSeek

High-performance MMap + Async chunk loading engine for dedicated Minecraft servers.

What is ZeroSeek?

ZeroSeek replaces Minecraft's standard synchronous chunk loading system with a memory-mapped I/O and asynchronous processing engine. The goal is stable TPS with any player count and any movement pattern, including elytra flight and teleports.

Current Status

Ready for use: MMap chunk reads, Delta Layer, Async Workers, CPU Affinity, TPS Governor, MMap prefetch on Windows and Linux.

Features

• MMap I/O Engine — chunks are read directly from RAM via MemorySegment (Java 22 FFM API).
• Delta Layer — writes are isolated from reads; modified chunks are stored as .raw files with background rebase to base .mca.
• Async Worker Pools — chunk parsing (decompression + NBT + DataFixerUpper) is offloaded to dedicated fixed thread pools with bounded queues.
• CPU Affinity — worker threads are bound to specific cores via FFM (sched_setaffinity / SetThreadAffinityMask).
• TPS Governor — adaptive simulation distance, player ticket freeze/limit, entity hibernation, AI throttling, and movement packet throttling when TPS drops.
• Entity Hibernation — entities in "old" chunks skip ticks during STRESS/CRITICAL TPS; blocks keep ticking.
• MMap Prefetch — posix_madvise on Linux, PrefetchVirtualMemory on Windows.

Planned / Not Implemented

• TeleportGate — lazy teleports that wait for destination chunks to be ready.
• SpeedCap — entity speed limiting during CRITICAL TPS.
• LRU eviction / maxMappedBytes enforcement.
• Async generation wrapper.
• Auto-detect C2ME and disable mmap automatically.

Target Platform

• Minecraft 1.21.11
• Fabric Loader 0.18.2+
• Java 22 (required for FFM / MemorySegment)
• Server-side only

Build

./gradlew build

Output: build/libs/zeroseek-1.0.0.jar

Installation

1. Copy zeroseek-1.0.0.jar into your server's mods/ folder.
2. On first launch, config/zeroseek.json will be created — edit if needed.
3. Start the server.

Configuration

config/zeroseek.json allows tuning:

• mmapEnabled / deltaLayerEnabled — enable MMap and Delta Layer.
• maxMappedBytes — MMap memory budget (LRU eviction is not yet implemented).
• rebaseIntervalSeconds — background rebase interval.
• chunkParserThreads / chunkLoaderThreads — pool sizes.
• cpuAffinityEnabled / cpuAffinityCores — core binding.
• tpsGovernorEnabled, simDistNormal/Stress/Critical, tpsStress/CriticalThreshold — TPS governor.
• entityHibernationEnabled, hibernateMinAgeMs, hibernateStressAgeMs — entity hibernation.

Compatibility

• Tested on Windows: affinity, mmap, delta, rebase, TPS governor, and PrefetchVirtualMemory work.
• Linux: affinity + madvise are implemented but not battle-tested.
• Likely compatible: Terralith, Biomes O' Plenty, Lithium, Starlight, Voxy, Xaero's World Map, Pl3xMap.
• Conflict: C2ME — auto-detect is not implemented yet. If you use C2ME, set mmapEnabled to false.
