Lithium Server Hosting

Lithium is the essential server-side optimization mod for Minecraft Fabric, with over 35 million downloads from server operators seeking better tick performance without compromising vanilla gameplay. When you host a server with Lithium, you're getting significant TPS improvements that directly benefit all connected players.

Why Host a Lithium Server?

Unlike client-side mods like Sodium, Lithium optimizes server tick performance. This means better entity processing, faster world generation, and improved redstone calculations. The result is higher TPS (ticks per second), less lag, and support for more concurrent players.

Server Requirements for Lithium

Lithium is incredibly lightweight - it optimizes existing code rather than adding features. We recommend 4GB RAM minimum, though Lithium's optimizations mean you can often support more players with the same resources compared to vanilla.

What Lithium Optimizes

Lithium improves numerous game systems: entity AI pathfinding becomes faster, block tick scheduling is more efficient, collision detection is optimized, and world generation calculations are accelerated. All improvements maintain 100% vanilla behavior.

Zero Gameplay Changes

Unlike some optimization mods, Lithium makes no gameplay modifications. Redstone behaves identically, mob AI follows vanilla patterns, and all mechanics work exactly as expected. Players won't notice any difference except better performance.

Server-Side Only

Lithium runs entirely server-side - players don't need to install anything. This makes it perfect for public servers where you can't control client mods. Just install it on your server and everyone benefits.

Combines with Sodium

While Sodium handles client rendering, Lithium handles server logic. Together they provide comprehensive optimization. Our Fabric servers come pre-configured with both for maximum performance.

Measurable Improvements

Server operators report 20-40% TPS improvements with Lithium, especially during intensive activities like mob farms or world exploration. These gains directly translate to smoother gameplay.

Active Development

The CaffeineMC team actively maintains Lithium alongside Sodium, ensuring compatibility with new Minecraft versions and continued performance improvements.
