Quick Redstone
by Merfilek
Quick Redstone speeds up redstone components on a server, so players can run circuits at a set multiplier of the normal rate.
What it does
A single command sets a global multiplier for all redstone, so a value of 2 makes circuits run twice as fast as normal, and a value of 10 or 100 can be used for a faster clock. A specific block can be given its own speed, for example comparators set to run five times faster than the default, and the block can later be reset to the global speed. Every setting can be cleared with one reset command that returns everything to 1x.
The mod only changes timing. It does not alter how components behave, only how fast they react, so redstone such as the Redstone Lamp, Redstone Torch and Sticky Piston works as it does in vanilla at a higher rate. Single-player worlds, dedicated servers and multiplayer games all accept the mod, and a debug command reports the active settings along with the count of redstone updates still queued. Builds work without the mod and behave the same, just at a slower pace.
Quick Redstone is published for Fabric on 1.21.1 and 1.21.11, under the MIT License, and is not open source. It is server-side only: players join without installing anything, and the commands need operator permissions to run.
Key features
Global redstone speed
One command sets how much faster all redstone runs, from double speed up to large multipliers.
Per-block speed
A single block type, such as comparators, can be set to its own speed independent of the global value.
Reset controls
A block can be returned to the global speed, or every setting can be reset to the default 1x with one command.
Debug view
A debug command reports the current settings and the number of redstone updates still waiting to run.

Who it’s for: Server owners and operators who want redstone to run faster than normal and need a single command to control it, on either a single-player world or a multiplayer server.
How it compares
Improved Redstone is a Fabric mod for 1.21 – 1.21.3 that needs the client and server, and is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. RedTooth is a Fabric mod for 1.21.6 – 1.21.7 where the server is required and the client optional, released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license and not open source. Quick Redstone differs from both by running only on the server, for 1.21.1 and 1.21.11, under the MIT License.

What the author says
Speeds up redstone components without changing how they behave, only how fast they react. Works in singleplayer and on dedicated multiplayer servers. Type /quickredstone in chat to check that it's working. If nothing happens, you're either on the wrong Minecraft version or you don't have operator (OP) permissions.
