I had this issue since 1.14.1, every time i turn my difficulty to anything higher than peaceful my entity counter skyrockets and the same goes for peaceful, bats seem to spawn a ton in groups of around 15 - 30, very strange but i'm not sure if this is meant to happen, i read the patch notes for 1.14.3 and as far as i could see, nothing was said about mob cap or spawn rates, super annoying and i hope it gets fixed.

Sorry about that, just thought i should note that i made this world in 1.13.2, loaded in 1.14.1 then to 1.14.2 and finally 1.14.3 pre, not sure if this has anything to do with it but here are some screenshots.
When you switch your world in 1.14.3-pre3 into peaceful mode and back again, do mobs still spawn too often?
yes, this is still happening but only the mobs are spawning, the bat issue has seemed to go away.
Please attach the zipped world file here. If the file size is too large, please upload it somewhere else and link to it here.
@unknown, as you're in 1.14.2, the ticket about your issue is MC-151337.
@unknown, I took a look at your world and the spawn rates seem to be completely normal for me, after setting time to day and switching the difficulty to peaceful and back again. I've therefore resolved this ticket as "Cannot Reproduce".
This should have been fixed as of 1.14.3-pre1, see MC-151337. After making sure that you're playing in the latest pre-release, please include some screenshots of the areas where supposedly too many mobs are spawning.
