As a result, fake items (see: EntityItem#makeFakeItem()) will be dragged to the player, as well as any other items with long, or infinite pickup delays.

I have this same issue when updating our pack to the newest recommended forge, the magnet becomes slow, almost useless, being a skyblock ppl really want the magnets to work. Any updates due to come out that might fix this wee bug?

What? The issue you're describing is completely unrelated to this one.

Oh lol sorry I saw magnet and assumed it was the same issue,
