I've used chunkgen in the past. I would say it works well but I doubt its the best one out there. It does allow you to specify the rate at which to generate chunks.

''I would like to caution you against generating the entire LOTR world. This would require at least 3-4 TB of storage. Sure, your host may say you have unlimited storage but you most certainly do not. There has to be an amount of storage allocated to your server, whether it's 100 GB or 2 TB, you will need to find out what it is and make sure you have the space to fit the world. Should you run out of space, the game will not be able to save important files which could drastically harm your world.''

If you have the space required, you should know that this will take a long time, the shire itself would take the better part of a day or even multiple days, while the entire world would take months, possibly even years.

''If you're truly serious about doing this, and you want to do so more quickly, I would recommend getting a dedicated server with many threads (and sufficient RAM), and then running the 'same' minecraft server as many times as you can and have each minecraft server generate a different part of the world. Then when it's done, just copy all the region files to one of the servers.''
