You should be commenting on "the Mojang team", not Notch. Minecraft was way more performant when Notch was working on it. There were a number of blogposts in the recent past about how Minecraft maintainers rewriting Minecraft to be more object-oriented and idiomatic have trashed what little performance there was.
- Perdition 12y agoIt was only more performant because it did less back then. And Notch had to incorporate fan mods to the lighting and chunk rendering code to even achieve that. There have been recent issues but lets not pretend they aren't the sort of mistakes Notch liked to make.
- cdr 12y agoGo look it up - recent patches have had massive increases in CPU and RAM usage not because of new features, but because of making the code prettier. Notch may not be an expert on lighting or chunk rendering, but he's pretty good at writing efficient game code.
