FAQ

How much RAM does RLCraft need?

RLCraft is brutal on servers — allocate at least 4 GB even for a few players, 6 GB+ once you're past 5. You can fine-tune it for your exact player count with the calculator.

Do modpacks need more CPU or more RAM?

Both, but modded Minecraft is single-thread bound — a host with a high CPU clock speed matters as much as the RAM.
