* Any paid server JAR that claims async anything - 99.99% chance of being a scam.
* Bukkit/CraftBukkit/Spigot - Extremely outdated in terms of performance compared to other server software you have access to.
* Any plugin/software that enables/disables/reloads plugins on runtime. See [this section](#plugins-enablingdisabling-other-plugins) to understand why.
* Many forks further downstream from Airplane or Purpur will encounter instability and other issues. If you're seeking more performance gains, optimize your server or invest in a personal private fork.
## Map pregen
Map pregeneration is one of the most important steps in improving a low-budget server. This helps out servers that are hosted on a shared CPU/single core node the most, since they can't fully utilize async chunk loading. You can use a plugin such as [Chunky](https://github.com/pop4959/Chunky) to pregenerate the world. Make sure to set up a world border so your players don't generate new chunks! Note that pregenning can sometimes take hours depending on the radius you set in the pregen plugin.
