gollark: The server here runs on an actual high-power... server... with 4 Neoverse-N1 cores, lots of fast RAM, etc. Raspberry Pis have 8GB of RAM at most, and it's slower LPDDR4, and it has half the clocks, and Cortex-A73s, which are worse.
gollark: Raspberry Pis *can* run servers, it would just be bad.
gollark: And that probably gives at most 50% more.
gollark: If you want more single-threaded performance, then you probably need something dedicated, which would rapidly become ultrahyperexpensive.
gollark: If ~~I~~ you want a *better* one, it will probably cost actual money, and Minecraft is unlikely to benefit much from more cores.
