AdvancedLootInfo 1.10.0 freezes client when connecting to multiplayer server

[Larbaco]

Bug Description

When connecting to a multiplayer server with AdvancedLootInfo (ali) installed on the client, the game freezes indefinitely during loading and must be killed.

Root Cause

The ali:jei_plugin enters an extremely slow processing loop when the server sends compressed loot table data. The server processes 13,349 loot tables (10.03 MB → 0.54 MB compressed) in ~1 second, but the client-side JEI plugin takes 7+ minutes, blocking the render thread with "Blocking this thread until all data are received!".

The client disconnects after ~3 seconds, and the plugin keeps running in the background, making the game unresponsive.

Environment

• Minecraft 1.20.1, Forge 47.4.20
• AdvancedLootInfo: forge-1.20.1-1.10.0 (mods.toml version 1.9.1)
• Modpack: Desolate Planet - A Crash Landing Remake

Upstream issues

• New update causes infinite loading yanny7/AdvancedLootInfo#69 (closed, workaround: downgrade to 1.5.2)
• [fabric 1.20.1]Unable to load EMI recipes every time joining a server yanny7/AdvancedLootInfo#102 (open)
• [Forge 1.20.1][1.8.2] /reload freezes the game yanny7/AdvancedLootInfo#96 (open)

Workaround

Removing/disabling AdvancedLootInfo on the client allows connection. The server can keep the mod.

This has now (hopefully) been fixed with 1.8.5.1.

Quick question though, where did you find this link to the Github repo? We switched over to this one about 6 months ago and I am hoping to find where the remaining links to the legacy repo are.

As for the source of this issue, it does not actually appear to be caused by Advanced Loot Info, I believe it was due to improperly registered commands in my fork of the Diet mod causing clients to get stuck when logging in, which happens to interact with Advanced Loot Info in strange ways. The new update appears to have resolved this in my testing.

It is on the project page on curseforge https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/desolate-planet, the issues button. I had just found the issue and was going to report the culprit hahaha

Thanks, not sure how I missed that one. Hopefully this bug is resolved now, let me know if you run into any more issues with it after updating to 1.8.5.1.
