I'm running a rust server on a VDS with 8 cores (3.2ghz each), 16 gigs of ddr4 ram, 1gbps internet, 300gb ssd - but my server fps is waving between 20-100 - I'd say it averages to 50 - with only a few players connected!

I have vanish, spectate, removaltool and adminradar plugins activated in my oxide - but the problem remains.

Is there anything specific I have to keep in mind? I don't think this fps is normal, as, when I host a server on my home gaming rig fps is 240 stable.

What is your map size, serverinfo response, plugins

I had the same problem like you, i did o.plugins, i saw what plugins are rrequirinh to many time (00.0s), i removed the config and make it again 100% focus, now is fine, hope you figure it out, my problem was copying and paste other configs from websites example: infopanel

> o.plugins

01 "TimeOfDay" (2.3.4) by FuJiCuRa (0.00s) - TimeOfDay.cs

Server is wiped 2 days ago. Now many people joined so far. Brand new.

serverinfo responsem spawn.report and make sure nothing else is working on the cpu rust uses. try DISABLING power saving mode (Performance mode)
