SeeMore
SeeMore is a simple plugin that sets each player's server-side view distance according to their client-side render distance. This results in more efficient use of server resources, by not unnecessarily loading chunks for players who use a low render distance.
Installation
To install the plugin, simply place the downloaded jar into your plugin directory. Be sure to configure the plugin by looking through its config.yml.
