While figuring out how chunk unloading works in Minecraft, it turns out you can permanently load chunk even not connecting them to spawn, so you can permanently chunkload random areas in your world, as small as a single chunk.

As a demonstration of capabilities of Perma-Loader, I run three separate stronghold sand farms at the same time using one player only. It works in Singleplayer and Multiplayer, and in case of multiplayer - doesn't require any player to be loaded.

I am pretty sure, that permaloader should allow for many interesting new things to develop.
