I'm a brand new server owner with very, very elementary knowledge of server admining/ownership. I'd had my server running for just a few weeks when I saw Death's ad for server consultation and reached out hoping to just get an expert's stamp of approval for peace of mind. 

Death went above and beyond and surpassed all of my expectations! Throughout the entire consultation, Death was extremely communicative, very friendly, and I immediately could tell how much knowledge and expertise he has. He helped me with my Oxide to Carbon transition, plugin code optimization, and showed me everything--from the basics to little in-and-outs and miscellaneous tips and tricks. He was so quick to provide options/solutions for problem areas and to reach out to the appropriate contacts for any concerns I brought up. 

I learned so much thanks to Death and my server is totally optimized and nearly future proof! He really knows what he's doing and is the best person to have whether you're new to server ownership or a veteran with multiple organizations. I highly recommend his service and would urge anyone on the fence to work with him. Thank you so much for all your help, humor, and mentorship! I will definitely be booking more services in the future. Cheers! 10/10

So to preface this, I run a PVE server which is heavily modified. I have ~170 plugins - Lots of NPCs, events, ST, all that fun stuff. I often see within a few days 300k+ entities. All this leads to some less than ideal client performance as well as server performacne.

So I reached out to Death, got him what he needed to get started on the profiling and thought I would hear back in 24 hours. Not even a couple hours later, he found some major issues with hooks being called too often and a handful of other issues that was resulting in an extreme amount of garbage collection and lag. He had a fix ready for some and in the process of creating other fixes already. The difference was night and day after applying all changes. Client performance went from feeling stuttery and laggy at 40 pop, to actually being smooth as hell, even with the server hitting max pop of 100 for the first time and the following 3 days after. All this to say - I cannot recommend this enough. It was actually kind of crazy the difference it made.

Server FPS wise, 170 plugins + 100 online + 500 offline and 300k+ ents, its hard to really get good numbers there without significant work. But it was absolutely more stable. Not seeing huge frame time spikes on saves, GC pressure has gone down by a large margin, and overall everything seems to be working better. NPC movement is smoother, patrol heli seems to function better, and general in game plugin performance feels much smoother.

I should note - I did pay further for a plugin to be created with other optimizations and patches, but it was well worth it. No shot my server a week ago would have been able to comfortably withstand 100 online for a few days in a row without the help of Death.

6 out of 5 stars!

Over the past 3 years of running a largely PVE-Based Community, Death has provided ample assistance in keeping us going! Everything from assisting with the Oxide-to-Carbon merger, customized plugins to avoid unwanted exploits, system developments, and more....he's the man with the plan!

Just in the past three months alone, Death has helped us reduce our total plugin counts from over 200, down to 90-110 through optimizations, bundling, and the use of new modding infrastructures such as Carbon and Harmony2.0. He's always went above and beyond to ensure the best experience possible, not only for us as staff here at Rust-A-Holics, but for every player who logs onto our servers.

Whatever you need, from performance modifications and hardware assistance to customized plugins and development, Death's got your back!

Seriously, thank you my dude. You've been an incredible help in taking us to the next level.
