Hi, I've been interested in Minecraft clients and servers that aren't as terrible as the Mojang Java ones. This seems to be one of the best servers that's not in Java and is actively developed and has a lot of features currently. I'm wondering, how exactly is Cuberite better? What large scale benefits can be seen? What techniques make it run faster than the Java server, and are there any tests or benchmarks that show this?
As another note, why does Cuberite provide slightly different features as compared to vanilla? Is there some reason why the exact functionality can't be emulated or copied? Thing is, I'd love to use a server like this and even develop for it, but it bugs me that I can't have a real vanilla experience right now. For example, the world generation in Cuberite is nothing like the actual Minecraft world generation. Is this the wrong place to look for such a thing?
