Sugar (Sugar Optimization) is a vanilla-based Fabric and Quilt modpack on Modrinth that aims to run well on a wide range of PCs while keeping popular OptiFine-style features. It combines Sodium, Lithium, Starlight, ImmediatelyFast, EntityCulling and other optimization mods with Iris for shaders, plus Continuity and CIT Resewn for connected textures and custom item textures, zoom and capes. The project centres on Minecraft 1.20.1.
Sugar is a client-only pack: gameplay stays untouched, so players get higher FPS without changing the rules of the world. Pair it with a ScalaCube server and your whole group enjoys smooth play on a stable, always-online survival map.
The server simply needs to run the same Minecraft version. ScalaCube installs it for you: select Sugar or a Fabric server in the control panel, pick 1.20.1 and click install – no manual setup. Want server-side performance too? Upload Lithium or other Fabric server mods via FTP.

No. It's optional client-side, but they must match the server's Minecraft version.
2-3 GB is plenty for a vanilla-style world.
