LagSweeper Datapack
LagSweeper Datapack is a server-side data pack that removes leftover entities such as dropped items, XP orbs and unused armor stands.
What it does
The pack cleans up entities that remain in the world after they have stopped serving a purpose, including dropped items, experience orbs and armor stands. Mobs without equipment are also targeted, which reduces the entity count on busy servers. Because it is a data pack, the cleanup runs on the server, and players can join without installing anything.
The pack suits survival worlds, redstone builds and servers where performance matters. Entities carrying specific tags are left alone, so gear and objects meant to stay in place are not affected. The release is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a data pack, for 1.21.5 only. Server owners need the 1.21.5 build; the license is All rights reserved and the code is not open source.
Key features

Mobs without equipment are cleared out, helping keep the world running smoothly on large or busy maps.
Tag protection
Entities marked with specific tags are excluded from cleanup, so player-used armor stands and gear stay intact.
