The GC Issue. ( game freezing/FPS dropping ) POTENTIAL FIX?

[Hops]

Let's talk about GC, or in its expanded name - Garbage Collection ( ill be calling it GC )

right off the bat, heres my specs https://gyazo.com/b434f8eb4f2e2aec0db43602e0b25834
I understand my specs aren't ideal for how intensive rust is ( due to how unoptimized the game currently is ) but i promise you this is not directly the cause, this was never an issue before the most recent patches.

- THERE WILL BE A TL:DR OF WHAT I REALLY WANNA TALK ABOUT BELOW -

GC is an issue i've run into lately, i'm an active rust player and its something thats been causing me ( and many other players ) a lot of problems.

After this more recent force wipe GC has been popping up in the corner of my screen from time to time, happen more often the longer im playing, now to my knowledge, GC is meant to increase performance, but now when it deletes these garbage files my FPS is cut WAY DOWN. to the point of freezing my game fully for 1-2 seconds every couple seconds lasting for a minute or two.

now this may or may not have been common knowledge to people who are also having the issue, thats why i chose to share about it. its been so confusing to me and my teammates.

I haven't seen much light shed on this, what im assuming is a bug. its been addressed in a previous post by some devs, but they claimed the issue was " solved " which is not the case.

T L : D R

What i really wanna ask about is a potential fix and its impacts. I read on a post about this someone suggesting that a string of code may help fix the issue ( they didn't say much about it )

I HAVE NOT TESTED THIS CODE PERSONALLY

The code was meant to be put into the console
- "gc,buffer 2048 ", the followed that up by saying that the current limit is too low.

at first glance this sounds like a decent fix, but you're ( to my knowledge ) increasing the amount of " Garbage " collected before it gets deleted, but how significantly does GC affect performance constantly. Would increasing the buffer have an effect on my performance.

I also wondered if doing this would make the freezing longer ? i assume it would happen less often but take longer to delete those files.

If you have any input on this topic or could inform me better i'd really appreciate it

Have a nice day! :)
