GPU load

Is your server CPU's integrated graphics sitting idle? Or does your server have a dedicated GPU?
Let's put it to work!

This mod offloads terrain noise, weather noise, and half of the AI processing to the GPU. These tasks aren't exactly a breeze for the CPU, but they're not particularly difficult for the GPU.
Since it doesn't handle all terrain generation or AI processing, it's “relatively” stable. (Though the effects are limited as a result...)

In short, this slightly reduces CPU load, resulting in more stable system performance.
However, depending on your environment, TPS (ticks per second) may decrease slightly.

Ultimately, this is a mod based on the philosophy of prioritizing stability, even at the cost of top speed.

Known Issues

There are a few bugs at the time of release...

1. When shutting down the server, it crashes due to a memory access issue. On the servers I manage, this has not caused any issues such as data corruption; it simply causes the server to crash along with some error logs.
   The cause is likely that when the server is shut down, memory is explicitly released, but some process is still requesting it.
   This issue is caused by the server shutdown process. It shouldn’t occur if the shutdown process doesn’t run...
