What machine for a 100-player Rust server?
At high player counts, single-core speed matters more than RAM. What to look at, and what we offer.

A fast core first. At high player counts, single-core speed limits a Rust server more than the amount of RAM.
What else weighs. Map size, the number of bases and entities, and your plugins. A quiet server and a heavily built one don't need the same machine.
Our plan. Rust 32 GB is ordered online, with RAM reserved for your server; check its page for the recommended player count. Beyond that, we offer a dedicated server on quote: at that size, machine speed is what counts.
Your plugins. Switch on Oxide or Carbon from your panel's Startup tab, then drop in your plugins. We'll help with the first ones — included.
Before a wipe. Start a backup yourself from your panel. If both slots are full, delete the oldest first.
