    About

    Krypton is a Fabric mod that improves Minecraft performance by optimizing the networking stack, with its features geared mainly toward server use. It includes optimized Netty handlers and packet splitting, flush consolidation to reduce server CPU use and tick times, and networking micro-optimizations that lower memory use and packet-serialization overhead. Other optimizations cover packet compression, entity tracking in worlds with many entities, and sending chunk packets in a spiral pattern; packet compression can use Java APIs or, on supported Linux systems, a native libdeflate implementation. Krypton also offers optimized server-side packet encryption on supported Linux platforms, working directly with network buffers to avoid memory copies. It works on either the client or server, does not need to be installed on both ends, and aims to preserve compatibility with vanilla's wire protocol.

    Written from Modrinth . How we write it

    In-game changes

    Changes the game's code in 6 areas: Networking and multiplayerChanges 6 game code files in this area: connections, the server list and what is sent between your game and a server., Mobs and their behaviorChanges 2 game code files in this area: mobs, animals, villagers, projectiles and how they move and act., Server and world logicChanges 2 game code files in this area: the world, commands, scoreboards, saved data and game rules., Game coreChanges 1 game code file in this area: the main loop, lighting and other code the whole game uses., Chunk loading and storageChanges 1 game code file in this area: how the game loads, tracks, saves and unloads chunks. and PlayerChanges 1 game code file in this area: your character: movement, abilities, hunger and controls..

    Adds no new blocks, items or other content.

    Keeps all of vanilla Minecraft's textures, models and sounds.

    Security

    No harmful code found

    We checked its files and read their code, without running it.

    What it can do on your computer

    Starts other programs
    It can start another program on your computer, for example to open a link in your browser. Only in its files for Fabric 1.21.5 to 26.3.

    Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.

    How we checked · All 18 latest files checked, last on 15 Oct 2026
    • FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.
      18 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. The answer above is about the 7 for recent versions. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases
    • Their codeWe turn the code of the files back into readable code and follow what it does, without running it. This shows what it downloads, what it sends and where your login goes.
      Read without running it
    • Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares that the project reads or edits things on your system outside the game. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when this applies.
      Nothing declared about your system outside the game.
    • Starts other programs
      Purpose not known.
    • Looked for, not foundWe looked for these in the file and did not find them.
      The internet, folders outside the game, updating itself, the webcam or microphone, an AI service.

    Privacy

    We found nothing it sends

    We read its code without running it: it contacts no web address while you play.

    Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.

    How we checked · All 7 files read
    • Files readWe read the code without running it. We list each web address the code contacts while you play, and what it sends. Code that is never used is left out.
      The code of all 7 files, for recent Minecraft versions. See each file in Releases
    • Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares crash reports, usage data and advertisements. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a project collects data on its users or shows advertisements.
      Nothing declared about crash reports, usage data or advertisements.

    AI

    No sign that AI was used to make it

    We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images and code history and found none.

    No sign of AI in the game

    We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.

    Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.

    How we checked · 6 places read
