⚠️ WARNING

This program, by default, scans 5000 ports at a time (5000 per second).

This may cause damage to a server, or may make it incredibly obvious you are scanning the server.

There are 2 ways to deal with this;

1. Decrease batch size rustscan -b 10 will run 10 port scans for 1 second, and then another 10 for 1 second and so on.
2. Increase timeout rustscan -T 5000 will mean RustScan waits 5 seconds until it scans the next ports.

You can also use both of these at the same time, to make it as slow or as fast as you want. A fun favourite is 65535 batch size with 1 second timeout. Theoretically, this scans all 65535 ports in 1 second.

Please do not use this tool against sensitive servers. It is designed mainly for Capture the Flag events, not real world servers with sensitive data.
