So, we have a "Official Minecraft Server" of my country's subreddit in which people play, but we are currently hosting it in Aternos which is rather terrible for more than 5 people doing normal stuff. So I tried to host it myself on my rig (i9 9900k ,32GB 3200Mhz) with a connection of 40/10 Mbps. I invited a couple of friends and it was terrible, the server started lagging as soon as they started running around generating new chunks very near spawn. I assigned 16GB to the minecraft server but even then problems persisted. I don't really know what else to test.
Although your software is good, your connection may be what is limiting it.
Since you are playing on the same rig that you play Minecraft on, you may be taking up a lot of the allocated bandwidth to your computer meaning the server doesn't have a fast or strong enough connection.
Try running a test of server performance with just the server running on your network. Nothing else (no tv, no games console). See if the lag persists.

Any suggestion is welcome.
