Smart Optimize
Optimization of (Neo)Forge.
About this Modpack
About
Attempt to be the most optimized modpack on NeoForge and Forge.
Note
I could not find a satisfactory optimized Modpack, so I decided to make my own.The purpose of this modpack is optimization, not lightweighting, and does not include mods that break elements of Vanilla Minecraft.
If you need further lightweighting, I recommend that you look for mods here.
Reasons for Alpha version.
Because its Modpack has not been further optimised by tweaking config etc. like SO (i.e. it is currently just an assortment of performance mods).
Reasons for Beta version.
Because its Modpack is in the process of further optimisation by adjusting config etc. (which is expected to result in unstable behaviour and environment-dependent performance).
Reasons for Release version.
Because performance gains from configs and other tweaks have plateaued, or because there are no plans to optimise any further (this may be updated when new optimisation mods are available on Modrinth).

Removed mods
- Chunky
Pre-generator mods are prone to performance fluctuations in the environment, so we have decided to remove them from this modpack. - Concurrent Chunk Management Engine (Fabric)
Replaced Connectored C2ME - Connector Extras
It is necessary if more mods are to be added, but it is not necessary in this environment, so I removed it.
Because the settings you made when using c2me disabled the Noisium functionality. - Embeddium++
Disabled because it is not an optimization mod. - Ksyxis
Replaced by ModernFix-mixin.perf.remove_spawn_chunks - Lazurite
Fabric Rendering API support was implemented in Embeddium (0.3.20➡). - Memory Leak Fix
- Starlight (Forge)
The light engine is sufficiently optimized that I have determined that it is not necessary to use it in ver1.20➡. - TexTrue's Embeddium Options
Incompatible with Embeddium(ver0.3.16➡) - Very Many Players (Forge)
Replaced VMP-fabric

How to Set Up a Smart Optimize Server
Order Server
Choose at least 4 GB RAM (6 GB recommended for Smart Optimize). Based on player count: per 5 players.
Install Modpack in Dashboard
Open the modpack browser in the dashboard, search for "Smart Optimize" and click "Install". The forge loader and Minecraft 1.21 are configured automatically.
Start Server & Play
Start the server – all mods are loaded automatically. Share the server IP with friends and play together!
Frequently Asked Questions
Smart Optimize server crashes or won't start – what to do?
Most common causes: insufficient RAM or wrong forge loader. Check latest.log for "OutOfMemoryError" → increase RAM to at least 6 GB. For "Mixin" or "ClassNotFoundException" errors: modpack version and loader don't match. With Mado Hosting, loader and Minecraft version are auto-configured on modpack install – preventing most startup issues.
How much RAM does a Smart Optimize server really need?
Minimum 4 GB, recommended 6 GB for stable performance. per 5 players. Important: Minecraft modpacks need more RAM than vanilla – plan extra per additional player. With Mado Hosting, you can scale RAM up live at any time without data loss (from €8/month).
Can I add custom mods to Smart Optimize without conflicts?
Yes, but check compatibility: only use mods for the same loader (forge) and same Minecraft version (1.21). Common issues: ID conflicts with recipe mods and incompatible coremod versions. The Mado dashboard mod browser only shows compatible mods and warns about known conflicts.
Smart Optimize server lagging – performance tips
1) Increase RAM to 6 GB+. 2) Reduce server view-distance to 8 (server.properties). 3) Pre-generate chunks with the "Chunky" plugin. 4) Use /spark profiler to check which mods consume the most tick time. With Mado Hosting, all servers run on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores – eliminating hardware as a bottleneck.
