We Just finished building a dedicated server for our needs.
CPU: Ryzen 3950X
RAM: 64GB 3200Mhz 16CL
Mass Storage: SSD

As our "lets do something stupid to benchmark it"
Our final test was to run Bedrock edition server off of it because of it's superior multithreaded optimizations.
And it ran like it was hosted from someones phone.
New chunks and old chuncks were loading very slowly and and it couldn't even handle 160x160 tnt properly.
If I do this off of my own i7 3930k, 16GB ram, SSD and Win10home I get much better performance and my CPU usage will be at 100% like it should be.

With the small scale tnt test, my PC takes 1 min to blow it up, on the dedicated server, it took 10 minutes.
On paper, even my CPU in 1 treaded performance loses to 2nd gen ryzen by a huge margin. 

Heck, even Our JAVA server out performed the Bedrock server.

This is unacceptable.
