Lately i've been looking into ways of boosting the server performance again. Sometimes when I notice very long plugin hook times after entering the o.plugins command I decide to reload plugins with a long hook time (100s or more) and then I think I notice an increase in server fps. So I thought what if I use timed execute to run the o.reload * command every hour or so. Would this be a good idea? Why/why not?
Reload plugins to boost server performance?
If the plugins aren't creating garbage or endless caches of data, unlikely that it'll make much difference. You'll likely run into more issues by mass reloading plugins periodically due to dependencies, the time taken to reload those plugins, etc.

How about just reloading a few specific plugins every once in a while? Some heavy plugins are ServerRewars, NoEscape etc. If you would just reload them every hour or so would it help? Because when I reload it manually I see an increase of server fps, like 10, 20, 30 or even more sometimes. So it would make sense to do this every hour automatic or something maybe.
