Hello everyone,

I rent a dedicated server with :
Intel Core i7 CPU 970 @ 3.20Ghz 6 Core. (12 Logical)
120 Gb SSD disk
2 Tb HD 7200 rpm
24 Gbs of RAM
100 Mb connection.
Using Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard Edition (64 Bit).

I installed everything on the SSD disk following the guide in the wiki.
I'm creating an retail like server (without change any rates of server 1x ftw )
I'm using the default configuration in l2j server and mysql server.
I did enable geodata choosing the default values available in the properties except geodata driver ofc XD (using Hi5 geo+pn).

everything runs nice. Atm I have 2 gameservers. 1 community server and the loginserver.

I notice the character freeze like for 2/3sec then goes back to normal, then after 1m or 2m it freezes again.
I'm the only one online.

What recommended setting could I change to improve performance ? lets say for 2000 players.

-servers should use intel xeon family, not intel core (desktop version)
-use Debian/CentOS instead windows server.
-be sure you are using x64 java (even in x64 machines, java is setted by default to use its 32 bit version)
-If you didnt touch default configs and are you are freezing with your servers and whenever you are the only one online, its more like to be an OS problem. Also, does this happen if you run only, lets say, a login server + game server?

After all that, check your SQL configuration and customs.

Intel Core i7-3930K @ 3.20GHz
Intel its the only type of CPUs the host provides. they have a 4k something version (should I change host ? are they scamming me ? XD )
I'm a windows Server Fan :) (not an option to work on does OS)

JAVA_HOME its set to java 64bits path, should I use "–d64" on running GameServer ?
Hate MySQL XD ( why not SQLServer XD ) (SQL server fan :P)
Any recommended article on how to tunning my MySql database ?

The CPU shouldn't be problem, have you tried monitoring?

But Linux on server should perform better, I have much weaker machine with debian Jessie and it performs well

I think its related to MySql. I need to read more about it and find something like performance monitor for MySQL.
