I am considering using Minetest as a conference competition (details withheld, sorry) and was wondering how many players a server can host? I see numbers in the 10's. what about around 100? All players will be an a local LAN so bandwidth should not a consideration.
I have a quad core machine with 8 Gig RAM, but again, does the Minetest server make use of the extra cores? (the server may be running other services as well).
Thanks in Advance
