Mining world, frame borers

Please be aware that frame borers or other large automated massive mining operations (for reasons other than making room to build) are only permitted on the mining world. If you have already started on one or completed a machine, please dismantle it.

For those who are new to the server, the mining world is a separate world that is reset fairly infrequently, but more often than the main world is reset, that is dedicated to mining operations, both manual and automatic. However, the mining world is not yet active, though it should be opened soon. It is waiting on ongoing performance tests as I see how well the server can perform with a peak number of players (50-70 players online). We've made good progress from a week ago when the server ran at a pitiful clock rate of two ticks per second (nominal rate is 20 ticks/second) to a more acceptable 13-15 ticks/second as of yesterday, but I'd like to hit a normal rate of at minimum 17 ticks per second even under load.
