The record

Purpose: Exordium renders the Minecraft GUI at a lower configurable fixed framerate to free CPU and GPU time for world rendering.
Affected interface: The listed vanilla elements include overlays, the hotbar, crosshair, bossbars, debug screen, titles, scoreboard, and chat.
Client only: CurseForge lists Exordium's environment as Client.
Download sources: The project links to CurseForge and Modrinth for downloads.
Mod loaders: CurseForge lists Fabric, NeoForge, Forge, and Quilt loaders.
Integrations: The repository says it has been tested working with Sodium, Iris, Optifine, AppleSkin, Better Ping Display, Chat Heads, Detail Armor Bar, WTHIT, JourneyMap, ToroHealth Damage Indicator, and BetterF3.
Compatibility limits: The repository lists VulkanMod as incompatible.
Screen rendering: Screen setting support is unfinished, disabled by default, and has transparency issues; the repository says it can speed up mods such as REI with visual issues.
Maintenance: The project page says Exordium is work in progress and asks users to report issues.
License and redistribution: The repository's Protective License says redistribution of the software or derivatives requires the author's permission, with an exception for CurseForge modpacks.
Current limitations: The CurseForge description says the mod is in maintenance mode, with no new features planned and no fixes planned for bugs with other mods.
Supported interface scope: The CurseForge description says only the vanilla GUI is supported and warns that mods rendering their own GUI elements may not work.
