1. Hi,

    I'm kinda new to the hosting of a rust server.
    But what are the recommended server specs for running a rust experimental server with 50 slots on centos?

    I whas thinking about buying this:
    • KVM OpenStack
    • 1 vCore
    • 2,4 GHz
    • 4 GB RAM
    • SSD 20 GB
      Local RAID 10
    Would that be good enough for 50 players?
     
  2. U never want 24.ghz I used that and I had 200 FPS max and lagged at around 20 now I have up to 2k FPS with 4.0 GHZ and 100 ppl. Also rust has a memory leak so your gonna want at-least 16gig ram, I know its expensive but when ur map has 100k entities i start with 4gig of ram being used! So you want minimum 16 the rest looks good
     
  3. How does FPS even work?

    I know minecraft works with tps (ticks per second) under 15tps = server lagg.

    But how does it work in Rust? Where does the server FPS stand for?
    How is 200fps bad?
     
  4. lol 16gb of ram with 50 people you on crack m8? maybe if you never restart your server haha
    as for op those specs should be fine your gonna worry about connection speed more just make sure you restart every day or so to clear up used ram
     
  5. u start on 4gigs with 100k entities, and the most important I find is the CPU speed I think 4.0 should be minimum
     
  6. NiZZy what you say is totally bullshit. ProfesorKush knows about, I guess. 4 GB Ram is not much for rust. And we have 150k Entities at the Moment with around 15 - 40 Players and it uses about 10GB within 3 days. So you're wrong.

    And a vCore 2,4GHz is too slow for rust. Get a modern one. At least an Intel modern dualcore.

    In your situation, its better, you rent a server from a game server host.
     
  7. it's easy to not let your server have that much ents you just have to make sure you stay ontop of raided base and useless clutter you can easily run a server properly with the specs provided but its not gonna be top notch obviously hes only going to have 50 max slots anyways he is new and prob wants to try some stuff out the specs provided will be fine... you also have to consider he is using linux over windows so their will be alot better performance anyways
    your kush may be right but your telling the guy hes gonna have to fork out alot of money on a low pop server that is prob only for friends
