Do Minecraft Bedrock servers support multithreading?
Do the bedrock edition Minecraft dedicated servers support multithreading? According to the wiki, the client does, but I could not find anything about the server.
Best Answer
Yes. Below is a screenshot of SysInternal's process explorer threads tab for the bedrock_server.exe process running on my machine.
You can see a thread count of 25 threads. How much the bedrock server is optimized for multithreaded performance is another story. It's proprietary software so there isn't a way to verify that. Several factors besides threading affect performance. IO can be a big performance factor with Minecraft servers for instance.
