give me an imperfect start. the worst possible start. fall into a river and drown because you thought you had to press spacebar to swim, not hold it down.
glad to see youtube's made its algorithm slightly better and i can actually find people with small channels who do this. peak schadenfreude.
It is well known by server owners that villagers are the most CPU-intensive mob in the game by far. Not because their behaviour is complex but because of silly reasons like poorly optimised AI when searching for workstations.
Over the years, some strategies were discovered to minimise this lag. For example, before 1.16, double carpets could disable movement AI, but this no longer works. Tricks like using magma blocks were used on Hermitcraft recently but don't actually reduce lag, just keep the villagers in place.
Villager lag has little effect on small servers but medium and large servers suffer greatly. For this reason, servers like CanopyMC and Hermitcraft highly encourage building trading halls away from bases.
