⚡ Element

Element is a high-performance network optimization and utility plugin designed for Paper and Purpur servers. It keeps your main game thread free from lag spikes by intelligently offloading heavy network packet serialization and compression to background worker threads using a direct Netty pipeline injection.

🚀 Key Features

• Async Packet Offloading: Moves heavy data processing off the main game thread.
• Zero Polling Overhead: Completely event-driven, ensuring it only runs when packets are actively being sent or players join/quit.
• Lightweight & Safe: Uses daemon threads and clean error handling to keep your server stable.

📌 Commands & Usage

• /element status — Check the engine state, live server TPS, and active pipeline hooks.
• /element metrics — View background worker threads, queue backlogs, and processed packet stats.
• /ping [player] — Quickly check network connection latency for yourself or other players.
