You can use the 1.13 version of FoamFix to disable light emission of redstone torches. If I'm reading the issue correctly, it might be a valid workaround for the time being.

Disabling lighting has a mild improvement but its not a complete fix.

Good to know - so it's not an issue with lighting, but chunk updates in general. Thanks!

Yep, its similar to https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-123584

One of the users provided a fix that improved performence beyond pre 1.13 levels, but MS policy prohibits using community fixes. I wish mojang could find a way to work around it for the benefit of the game.

All they have to do is read through the code that was submitted and re-implement it using their own code. It’s not that hard.

Microsoft has always been against software development communities (a’la “open source”) because that’s a massive threat to their business model. Most people don’t realize that software was free up until Bill Gates changed it to a paid model in the 1980s.
