Multi-process server stability issues

[skip029]

I got my server running super stable, no crashes or r0 for weeks. Got to Sea Serpent Grotto and noticed a little bit of lag, more so than other zones. Thought I'd try my hand at maybe maximizing performance with the "multi-process server" tweak. I did end up getting it to run with the 7 processes via dbtool, separated all zones into 7 etc, however, I get some invalid zones in the logger for 244, 245, 246. Those are normally, Jeuno, but I am able to go to those areas and leave fine with no errors other than "invalid zone".

But random R0 decided to start happening, in Palb Mines and LoO so far and players would get stuck. I had to move them out, restart the processes and they would be fine again. Using custom teleports into those zones also don't seem to work at times. I don't see any errors of any kind in the logger.

I had high hopes for this but it seems my inexperience with all this ended up in disappointment. I know zach2good says this isn't really recommended etc, but wanted to share my experience with this and if others are experiencing the same problems or thinking of doing it themselves. Going to shelf this wish for now until i get guud and/or perhaps an easier to-do or more stable method comes about. I do appreciate all the hard work the LSB team has done and for the community.
