Lol.. that's just silly
MCServer IS capable of holder even more mobs than that, but the bandwidth is simply WAYYY too high!
If you have multiple players on your server, you'll disconnect even faster. And if a player with low internet speed tries to join the server, he'll disconnect as well, because the server can't send packets to him fast enough. I can't think of an easy way to fix this, but I suppose it has something to do with keeping track of what and how many packets are being sent to each client seperately.
Right now a mob might be sending its location to the clients 60 times per minute (probably more, but whatever), if the server is only capable of sending out 30 packets per minute, the queue will build up, with location packets of the same entities. I suspect these need to be filtered, so there's only one packet for each entity in the queue.
