Rust Server #1 On New Hardware

As the title says, we've now completely migrated Rust server #1 to a new faster, bigger, dedicated server. Just search for it in the in-game Rust browser or you can connect directly to it at 91.121.90.23:28015.

The PlayRust.io map is at http://playrust.io/map/?91.121.90.23:28015.

If you’re interested, the new hardware is a Xeon 3.4Ghz 4 core (8 threads), with 32GB Ram, plus 2x 120GB SSDs in RAID 1, and an additional 120GB SSD as storage, so there’s plenty of oomph in this for expansion. Running just a single server is taking up less than 4GB RAM and roughly 10% CPU. (Compare this to the 50% CPU of the old system.)

We’ll be migrating server #2 to this new hardware at the next dev wipe on the 6th April.

We’re also considering running a medieval server using only swords and crossbows and a 7 Days To Die server too as that’s pretty good fun (and scary, when you’re trapped in a tower block on swarm night.)

Whatever we do, we wouldn’t want to run the server at over 60% CPU, so we’ll be careful over how we go about it all.

We’ll keep you posted.
