Fps sux after performence update

If messing with the settings doesn't help then I'm afraid you're fucked and your only option is to make a decision as to whether or not your computer is worth upgrading just to play Rust.

Rust performance has just gotten worse and worse for me over the years as well. I used to be able to play the game at full speed with an R9 270 and a G3258. I took a break from the game for about a year and when I came back it was running like a fucking slide show. I have an RX 580 8GB now and a fancy new Ryzen CPU but even with that, the framerate drops to around 40-50 after running for more than an hour or so. The "Performance Update" didn't change anything for me at all.
