48 hours: hourly readings. 30 to 90 days: one point a day, with the day's average and lowest fps, most entities and most memory. From asking the server directly; low fps and a climbing entity count mean lag.

Peak: the most players in the first 48 hours. Crowd: whether every day of the wipe kept at least half that peak, or the day it fell below. A new world less than six hours after a wipe is a restart, not a wipe of its own.
The average peak across its recent wipes is 1 players. 0 hours after the latest wipe, the crowd reached its peak.
Wipes on Lab come at irregular times, and no next date can be given. On Thursday 5 November at 19:00 UTC the monthly force wipe arrives, and every Rust server wipes with it. This world dates from 23 days 21 hours.
These are the Rust Live Stats lists Lab fits: Modded Rust servers live now. Under the filters Type: Modded; Server tag: Modded ^z and Oxide ^o; Group limit: 5 or more it appears on the server list.
The server browser reads gmrust (Game mode): The game mode is standard Rust survival; mp5 (Max players): Slots: 5; ts8 (Group limit): Team cap: 8, which is the game default; v2634 (Protocol): Join only if your game is on protocol 2634; cs166652 (Build): Build: 166652; ptrak (Networking): RakNet, the game's usual network layer, carries this server; $r? (Region code): Region code: none set; ^o (Oxide): Plugin framework: Oxide (uMod); ^z (Modded): Plugins or settings changes put this under Modded, which Lab publishes. The current player count, the queue and the world's creation time also sit in the tags, shown at the top of this page.

Ranked by seven-day player hours, Lab is #15,983, placing it in the top 71% of ranked servers.
No gather rate appears in the name Lab. No custom limit is set, so groups hold the default 8 players. It runs survival, the standard game: gather, build, raid. Fighting and raiding between players are allowed. Plugins or settings change the game, and the browser lists it as Modded. Oxide plugins are in use. Anti-cheat: VAC from Valve is enabled.
A procedural map, generated by the game, runs on Lab.
Nothing on Lab states a region. The location shown on Rust Live Stats is the one a server gives, not a lookup of the machine's position. You can reach it at 188.186.17.80:28015.
Rust network protocol 2634 and build 166652 on Windows is what Lab runs. Steam updates it for you, but your game needs the same protocol to join.
