Krypton Reno
by 4x
Krypton Reno is a Forge and NeoForge network optimization mod that Spring Lotus requires and that servers and clients can both run.
What it does
Krypton Reno targets the network layer of Minecraft, aiming to reduce latency caused by CPU core preemption on the machine that runs it. Its optimizations can free some hardware resources, although they cannot help much when the hardware is already very limited or the network connection is poor. The mod is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and public links exist for the source code and the issue tracker.
Spring Lotus must be installed alongside Krypton Reno, because it is a required dependency. Builds are published for Forge and NeoForge across the game versions 1.18.2 – 26.2, with 26.1.1-1.20.1 as the latest Forge file for 1.20.1 and 26.3.2-26.2 as the latest NeoForge file for 26.2. Either side can run it on its own, and neither side needs it.
Key features
Network optimization
Reduces network overhead for both the server and connecting clients, with no change required on the other end of the connection.
Native acceleration on Windows
A companion native library called RecastLib adds acceleration on Windows x64 and arm64 systems.
Stable version support
Compatibility is kept for the stable versions 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 as well as the newest releases.
Environment variable configuration
Some settings can be supplied through environment variables instead of JVM arguments.

Use cases
Busy multiplayer servers
Server owners running many players can apply the optimizations on the server side to reduce delays caused by CPU contention.
Players on uneven connections
Clients that join servers running the mod can benefit from the same network changes without needing to match another setup.
Who it’s for: Server administrators and players who run Forge or NeoForge and want to reduce network latency on a machine with spare CPU capacity. Installing Spring Lotus first is required.

What the author says
Since we no longer provide Forge compatibility starting from version 26.1, the original name "Krypton FNP" is no longer meaningful. The acronym "FNP" stood for "Forge and NeoForge's Port," but as Forge support is now absent, I have renamed this mod to Krypton Reno.
