Glycerol Trinitrate
by Busituteng
Glycerol Trinitrate is a Forge joke mod for Minecraft 1.12.2 that claims to cut memory use while doing the opposite.
What it does
The mod presents itself as an optimization tool that lowers memory use. In practice it changes only the reported memory figure and stops the game from reducing anything, so the claim is a joke rather than a working feature. Its single command, opti, is described by the author as a way to reduce memory occupation, and the author notes that it does not do so.
The mod runs client-side only, so only the client needs it and servers can run without it. The author marks it as unstable and warns that it can damage a game map. It is not recommended for a server, and the author describes it as suitable for entertainment only, since improper use may lead to map destruction or heavy CPU load.
Files are published for Forge 1.12.2 only. The latest file is version 1.2, released 2022-09-14 on the beta channel. The mod is released under a custom license and is not open source. Source code, an issue tracker and a wiki are linked publicly.
