Would love to see a test on what blocks affect TPS and to what extent, such
as hoppers transferring items, lots of chests, entities, redstone clocks,
etc. =)

Xisuma, this is incredibly unscientific! Also you’re not testing lag here,
you’re testing frame-rate. Lag is latency, FPS is how often the current
game state is drawn.

I’m going to write a reply explaining some of the FPS changes you saw, I’m
a graphics engine programmer and pretty much all of this is expected
knowing Minecraft

A lot of people say Minecraft is CPU dominant but I don’t really see why.
Sure a good CPU will help you generate chunks a lot faster (No chunk
generating lag with my fx-6300). If you think about it though, most farms
are GPU dominant. Especially mob farms. That’s because a mob model has more
polygons than a normal block. And that’s what a GPU is supposed to do, draw
polygons. If you have a lot of mobs, that equals a lot of polygons, which
equals a lot of GPU usage.
So what I want to know is, what other mechanics require a good CPU other
than chunk generation?

I note that while you put an object inside the item frame, you left the
armour stand empty. Might be worth repeating the test with empty item
frames and “dressed” armour stands.

an empty item frame cause less lag then one with an item in due to the item
placed in the item frame is another entity

What about the Animated blocks? Thinking of sea lantern etc.
Also my friend made a big house of stained clay with different colors, and
everyone nearby that house was really having some fps drop, maybe stained
clay cause lag? Hmm
