I mean you could use TimedExecute to run oxide.unload AddonName every X seconds and require admins to reload them manumally... but honestly some addons like BoxLooters need to be loaded so that they can track and write to a data file to work properly... if your having issues with your server you might want to loot to AI and how many along with the number of ents on your server before having admins load addons manually each time

Stuff like Vanish, DontTargetMe, MasterKey, AdminRadar they can all be unloaded and it would help alot since these are usually the most-demanding plugins, right? No need to keep them running if an admin is not around I assume.

Usually they are not THAT heavy and it seems to be always fine for me so no reason to unload.

Everytime I run o.plugins the plugins with most hook time are admin plugins such as the ones I just described. I know hook time doesn't say everything but it does say alot so I feel like it would be better to have them unloaded when not in use compared to keep them running constantly when not even used.

99% plugins from umod doesnt have save delay to prevent lag spikes
99% plugins from umod doesnt unsubscribe from hooks (when they are not needed) to save performance

I may be missing something here, but it's very easy to start plugins unloaded, just unload them in your startup file:

o.unload plugin1
o.unload plugin2
 etc...

I dont think that will work, because plugins loading after server loading
