    I have been helping my oldest boy on the Minecraft server he has been setting up for home use and have run into this problem. Java eats up a lot of ram. There is a way to go into java and dedicate more ram for it. I don't remember the steps but go and look up dedicating more ram for java. It has fixed this problem on his laptop, desktop and server.

    I had the same issue.
    I figured out that because I had 32 bit java that it would lag like crazy after a bit, then I downloaded the 64 bit version and Ive had no more problems.
