Our notes on Performium

What sets it apart

Performium is a client-side Fabric pack that tries to improve looks and comfort without costing frame rate. The author says it stays under 50 mods. The latest build lists 38 projects.

The core is Sodium with Reese’s Sodium Options, Lithium, FerriteCore, Entity Culling and ImmediatelyFast, plus more specialized speed mods such as ScalableLux, BadOptimizations, Very Many Players and Krypton. Visuals come from Iris, Continuity for connected textures, Entity Model Features and Entity Texture Features, and OptiGUI. Zoomify, Capes, Language Reload and Gamma Utils round it out. The page highlights shaders, connected textures, refined models and smoother mouse control.

Who it suits

Players on Fabric who want a prebuilt pack with shaders, connected textures and performance mods, and a wide choice of game versions. The page says it works on Windows, Debian-based Linux, the Modrinth App, Prism Launcher and ATLauncher.

Before you install

The page lists Minecraft 1.20.4 up to 26.3. Version names follow a stage scheme (Alpha, Beta or Release plus a build number).

The author says they have been too busy to update regularly, took a break, and returned with a v2 rebuilt from the ground up for Minecraft 26.2, saying it will stay MIT licensed. The newest version, v2.0.1-Beta+1, was published October 24, 2026 for 26.3.

The page lists no known issues and publishes no FPS or RAM numbers. Questions and bug reports go to the author’s Discord. The page’s installation steps cover only the Modrinth App.

Playing with friends

Modrinth marks the pack as required on the client and unsupported on the server, and no server files exist. The pack only changes the player’s own game, so friends do not need to install it to share a server.

Whether a given server accepts these mods depends on that server’s rules, which the page does not cover.
