Mods tested on Minecraft 26.3
Sodium mc26.3-0.9.3-alpha.1-fabric and Iris Shaders 1.11.7+26.3-fabric ran together in a client benchmark on Minecraft 26.3 in the Modkeel lab. Releases of 13 mods, among them Bobby, Chat Patches and CustomSkinLoader, made for an older Minecraft version did not start on 26.3 in the Modkeel lab: use a release made for 26.3. 7 mod releases started in real Minecraft 26.3 games in the Modkeel lab, among them Sodium, Iris Shaders, Better Mount HUD, Carry On and Krypton. The Modkeel lab also ran 1 pairs of mods in the same game.
Lab data as of October 4, 2026. 7 releases ran, 1 pairs, 13 older releases did not start, 19 ports.
What the lab measured on 26.3
Frame rate on Minecraft 26.3 with each mod, against the same game without mods.
Sodium raised the frame rate 75% with 300 mobs in view (92 to 160 FPS), 27% over terrain (242 to 306 FPS) and 88% with 300 mobs behind a wall (145 to 272 FPS).
Iris Shaders, which runs on Sodium and had no shader pack loaded, raised the frame rate 61% with 300 mobs in view (92 to 148 FPS), 15% over terrain (242 to 278 FPS) and 78% with 300 mobs behind a wall (145 to 258 FPS).
How it was measured: a real Fabric client on a laptop with a GeForce GTX 1650 and a Core i7-10750H joined the same world at 1280x720, render distance 24, VSync off. Each number is the median second of 20-second scenes over 1 to 2 runs. Runs without mods differed by up to 10%, so smaller changes are not counted.
Older releases that did not start on 26.3
Releases made for an earlier Minecraft version, run on 26.3 as they are. That is expected, not a bug in the mod: use a release made for 26.3.

Updating your pack to 26.3?
The lab shows how each release did in its own games; your pack is its own mix. The Modkeel Companion, a free mod for Fabric, copies each world before it loads with different mods; if the game then crashes, it names the mod that most likely caused it and turns that mod off, or goes back to the mods that last worked, in one click.

About this data
Loaded a world: a real Minecraft client started with the mod and joined a world. Server started: a real server finished starting with it. Benchmark: it ran through a timed lab scene. Did not start: the game stopped before it was playable.
Each row is one run in the Modkeel lab, matched to the exact file that ran: other files may behave differently. A mod or pair missing here was not tested yet; that is not a conflict. Lab data is CC BY 4.0: attribute "Modkeel lab data (modkeel.com)". Ask the same from an AI assistant with Modkeel's MCP server, or let the Modkeel mod check your own game.
