How many cores do I need for a Paper server? Hello! I'm running a Minecraft server that is expected to get around 60-100 players at one time. I was wondering about how many cores I need for a server of that size with about 30-35 plugins running PaperSpigot. The CPU is an Intel Xeon E5 v4. Would it be safe to use 1 core? Or will I need to use more
