The level 20 electric furnace issue produced by EZ conveyor standards

[Speciekuip]

What is the point of leveling a furnace or water pump?

Less lag/fps drops and lower entity count right?

Well get this setup in mind: Lets make a level 20 electric furnace, 1 conveyor inlet and 1 on the outlet with the EZ configuration with slower pass trough and less items per 8 seconds. Feed the setup with a box of sulfur ore. That 1 conveyor can't feed a single level 20 electric furnace, its too slow and runs empty after 2 seconds. So we still need to build a manifold. A 5 way inlet and a 5 way outlet manifold does the job with these EZ conveyor configuration. 

Why you don't want to run the complete setup with 1 conveyor and 1 level 20 electric furnace? On this setup we reduce lag/fps drops by placing 1 level 20 furnace but make lag/fps drop to feed them enough by building conveyor manifolds. Or is this the show like: "which entity do we want to reduce?"

I don't get this clear in my mind. We want to reduce lag/fps drops and entities by stacking furnace but need a bunch of conveyors to feed them, that will make laggie entities again. I might be a weirdo but im looking for an answer and a solution to run my future level 20 furnace.

By having one level 20 furnace as opposed to 20 level 1's you have already removed a massive amount of entities by taking away 19 furnaces and the electrics/adapters required to run them.

and you don't need 5 to push and 5 to pull if you run 2 pushing and pulling it will just lag behind 3 will keep it full and empty

I also use same setup Sweet Tooth posted 3 in 3 out with 6 level 20s never have any issues

From what date is that video? It fills way quicker than the EZ conveyor settings. This look like vanilla settings. Vanilla settings is every 2 seconds a push.

That video was taken on AU Survival about 2 minutes before it was posted
