How do I find the best Rust server?

Check the metrics first: fps, uptime, entities and population against slots. A server with high fps and steady uptime is within range. You can then filter by style, such as vanilla or modded , and compare the readings.

How often are the server statistics updated?

Every five minutes. Rust Metrics queries each server directly for fps, uptime and entity count, and reads population from the Steam server list. The figures you see are from the last refresh, so they are current within that window.

Why do some servers show high entity counts?

Entity count reflects how many objects exist in the world: buildings, deployables, items. A high count can lower fps and increase load times. Check the fps reading alongside it to see if the server is coping.

What does 'population against slots' mean?

It shows how many players are connected compared to the server's maximum slots. For example, 143 of 200 slots. A server at or near capacity may have a queue. Check the queue length on the server page if it matters to you.
