What does 1% low FPS mean in Rust benchmarks?

The 1% low FPS measures the worst-case frame rate during gameplay, the FPS that 99% of frames exceed. In this benchmark, the average is 83 FPS and the 1% low is 44 FPS. A small gap between average and 1% low means consistent frame delivery with minimal stuttering.

Tips & Tricks4

Moderate 1% Lows

1% low FPS drops to 44 FPS, frame drops below 180Hz cause visible stuttering. CPU peaked at 87°C, thermal throttling detected.

Hot CPU Temp

CPU peaked at 87°C, thermal throttling detected. Reapply thermal paste, clean dust, or improve case airflow.

Critical RAM Usage

RAM usage peaked at 91% of 16 GB. Close background apps to free up memory, or upgrade to more RAM.

Critical VRAM Usage

GPU VRAM usage averaged 11.2 of 12 GB (peaked at 93%). Lower graphics settings or resolution to avoid stutters from VRAM pressure.
