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.

Coming up · wipe schedule
Not enough wipes seen yet to tell when the next one is. Every server wipes at the monthly force wipe.
This server has not put up a new map since the desk started watching it.
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.
Test Server's wipe history is too thin on record to show a rhythm. Every server in Rust, this one among them, wipes at the monthly force wipe; Thursday 5 November at 19:00 UTC is the next. 55 days 2 hours have passed since this world was generated.

(Region code): The server sets no region code, which Test Server 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.
