I have a multiplayer survival server and it has been running fine for about two months. Yesterday, all of a sudden, there was so much lag that I couldn't move. It went to the point where I just stopped the server. I don't know what to do to fix it. All of my friends on the server also said that they were experiencing unbearable lag. I tried re-downloading the minecraft server and running it again, but that didn't work. I even restarted my computer to see if it was just a temporary thing. I don't know what to do and I need help.
For help that will be of more use than what I can advise, try asking the Server Administration section where they specialize in these issues.
But, when my server becomes laggy like that, it is typically because the RAM usage is dangerously close or over how much RAM is dedicated to the server. Try checking how much of the server's RAM is in use, and post on that Server Admin section to get better support.
