Yesterday, I accidentally uploaded an experimental version that used a new method, getChunksAtAsync(minX, minZ, maxX, maxZ, ...), recently added to Paper's async chunk API. This method allows chunk loading by area. If you downloaded it, please note that it is still experimental and much harder to calibrate since the parallel_tasks_multiplier has a greater effect when working with larger areas like 8, 16, or 32. These correspond to chunk squares of 64, 256, or even an entire region of 1,024 chunks.

If you have more threads and memory, this method works better than the existing version because it can load a large number of chunks in a single call. However, if you want to try the correct version mentioned in yesterday's update, it has now been uploaded, and the experimental version has been removed.

If you still want to try the experimental version, that's fine! Please let me know if you run into any issues and submit them on the GitHub issue page here: Issues · DavidS-Repo/chunker
