A daily restart is a good habit for any Minecraft server. Over time, a running server builds up leftover data in memory: sessions from players who disconnected, chunks that never fully unloaded, stray entities, and similar buildup. Restarting clears all of that out, and doing it roughly every 24 hours produces a real, noticeable improvement in performance.

Automate restarts with Schedules

Manual restarts are easy to forget, so let the panel handle it instead. From the Schedules page, set up a schedule that fires a restart power action on a cron timer, ideally during a low traffic window for your player base. You can also chain in a console command action beforehand, like say Server restarting in 5 minutes, so players get a heads up before it happens.
