Is the removal of redstone what actually removed lag? Lag does seem to be gone from my observations, but who was making redstone logic to rival that which occurs in the game anyway?

There where a few highly unnecessary and very over-engineered (poorly engineered/inefficient) machines that where definitely causing problems, as well as hundreds of RS_NOR gates scattered about (which really, if you can build one, you cannot mess it up, but the conventional RS_NOR that everyone ever builds is a looping circuit)

This is a non-issue. If someone builds a lag machine, mods will swoop in like great raptors and smash apart everything that may be threatening the server.

Edit: I actually don't actually know if RS is place-able, if it is not, then it does not matter since most of yall are terrible at RS anyway.

Redstone torches can currently be placed, as well as other power sources (levers, pressure plates). However, redstone dust cannot be placed.

I used to use redstone as markers for cave exploring, place one at every corner so you dont get lost and can find your way through the caves. torches work, but its easier to get lost by placing many torches to light up the cave. Needless to say, i am sad because i cant use redstone yarn to find my way around the labyrinth.

Honestly, in my opinion, lag was not reduced at all after the redstone wipe. Well, not to where I noticed at least. When I noticed the drop in lag was when Intelli rewrote the plugin... and also, when he killed a bunch of mobs that were sitting in a mob grinder.
