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.
At their busiest, its recent wipes averaged 2 players. Peak population on the latest wipe came 23 hours after it. In 0% of recent wipes, population held above half the peak right through to the next wipe. The crowd fell under half by day 7 when it did not hold.
Too few wipes are recorded for Rust Dev Server to establish a pattern. On Thursday 5 November at 19:00 UTC the monthly force wipe arrives, and every Rust server wipes with it. 6 days 6 hours have passed since this world was generated.

Nothing in the name of Rust Dev Server states a gather rate. No custom limit is set, so groups hold the default 8 players. It runs survival, the standard game: gather, build, raid. Raiding and player combat are both permitted. Plugins or settings change the game, and the browser lists it as Modded. Oxide plugins are in use. Anti-cheat: VAC from Valve is off.
A procedural map of 1,500 with seed 289356, generated by the game, runs on Rust Dev Server. RustMaps shows it from this page, since equal size and seed give an equal map.
