Is there a ''better'' way to set up a modded rust server?

Is there ''better'' ways to set up a modded Rust server. What I mean is, are there ways of settings up a server which would make it run worse than other ways of setting up a server?/Is there ways of optimizing the server? Does that make any sense? And if so, what would be the best way to do it, even if it meant paying someone to do it for you. (unless you have a lot of experience with that kind of stuff which I don't.)
Uhm, I hope that was understandable. Just ask me anything if I was unclear.

 

Not really its basically hardware thats optimize stuff for you.

 

That's not true, there are a variety of ways to have a more performant server.

Of course there's hardware, but there's also core allocation, ConVars, plugins, etc. I've found if you're running a large server it's beneficial to manage entities, that's the main source of lag. Examples include "Auto Purge" along with many other plugins. Unfortunately the bulk of them aren't public.
