HostBenchmark is a Java Edition Minecraft server benchmarking plugin for Bukkit, Paper, Purpur, and Spigot. It evaluates the resources that matter in real gameplay, including single thread and multithread CPU performance, disk reading and writing, Java memory throughput, and a temporary Minecraft workload involving chunk generation, entities, block updates, and main thread pressure.
It produces separate CPU, disk, Minecraft, and overall host scores, plus a readable report with tier labels and optional public comparison through the HostBenchmark leaderboard. This makes it easier to compare plans and machines using practical results instead of marketing claims. At BoxToPlay, we see it as a useful tool for checking whether a Minecraft server has the performance and consistency your community needs.
