I believe Paralake is a fun map for DarkRP, but one question I have is, is it too laggy to use on a server? On singleplayer, you don't get that much lag, but on a server with multiple add-ons and mods running and people playing, I think it might get laggy and unplayable. I've watched a couple videos of Paralake on a server, it doesn't seem all too bad, but it's hard to tell.

It'd be great to have some feedback for this, I love this map and hope to be able to use it!
Optimize the server:
- Lower the tickrate to 33
- Don't add laggy and slow addons
- Usually its best to have your own box. Since most hosts cramp too many servers on the same node.

You should be fine, it's not all that graphically intensive, considering a big part of it are roads and tunnels. Well, not any more than, say, evocity. I've seen it ran before on several servers without issue.
The reason why it's laggy, especially in this video, is because the user was playing PGRP. RedMist made PGRP and it was a good gamemode, but it was coded fastly and poorly. So naturally, there was a lot of performance issues with it.
And also his PC was shit. Performance issues were really hard sometimes.
