In their own words
Enhanced Block Entities
Enhanced Block Entities is a free, client-side Minecraft Java Edition mod that changes how selected block entities are rendered. It replaces some entity models with baked block models to target rendering performance, while preserving animations and rendering animated models only when needed. Listed optimised entities include ender chests, signs, bells, beds, shulker boxes and decorated pots. Visual options include smooth lighting, longer viewing distance, resource-pack remodeling and toggles such as Christmas chests. Resource packs can customise appearances, and a documented API lets other mods override configuration values or trigger a reload. EBE is described as a Fabric mod, with Fabric and Quilt listed as supported loaders, and it requires Fabric API. Minecraft Java compatibility spans versions 1.16.2 through 1.21.4. EBE 0.10.2 and newer work with Sodium 0.6 and newer without extra mods; earlier versions require Indium with Sodium 0.5.11 or below. The project is LGPL-3.0 licensed.
ImmediatelyFast
ImmediatelyFast is a free, open source Minecraft mod that improves client-side rendering performance in Minecraft: Java Edition. It batches draw calls using a custom buffer and sends data to the GPU more efficiently. Its optimizations cover entities, block entities, particles, text, GUI and HUD, maps, and immediate mode rendering used by other mods. The project supports Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, and Quilt, with compatibility listed for Minecraft versions 1.18.2 through 1.21.x and versions 26.1.x, 26.2, and 26.3. It is designed to work with most mods and modpacks, but names OptiFabric, OptiFine, LunarClient, and LabyMod as incompatibilities. The project says it can improve FPS when the CPU is the bottleneck, with slower CPUs benefiting more than very fast ones. A configuration file in the Minecraft instance’s config folder offers performance or compatibility options. The mod is licensed under LGPL-3.0-or-later, and developers can consult API documentation. The project links to a GitHub issue tracker and Discord server for support.
