Here's the first update of rust since April or something of 2012. I dunno. It's going to be a test-beta release so I know what else I need to do for optimization, clipping and other bugs that I may have missed.
Download to pl_rust_b4d
Known issues:
Clipping
Some optimization?
window behind red spawn is a closed Areaportal window.
Window in the building before final hill has areaportal bug
May cause some "holy cow this looks nice" comments. (Tell Aly)

I'll give it a runthrough if you want.

Aside from the stuff here, there's not much to say. Watch out for lighting errors? Be a bit more coherent with what each building is for, a lot of the props feel kinda generic.

It's no joke!
Mini-psuedo-update to rust here.
pl_rust_b5
+ Optimization pass. Some props have more aggressive fade distances than others
+ Fixed some missing overlays
+ Fixed some weird areaportalwindows (Because Aly said I did them wrong but didn't tell me how to fix it, just to remove them and replace them with areaportals.)
I'm going to be a better with getting updates out for this... hopefully.

Why can't you stand on this?

Bad copy-pasting.

Its almost here! 
Will see if there is anything I can give feedback on!
EDIT:
This doesn't seem right to me, the whole map is being rendered.
(in blu spawn)
(just outside blu)
odd shadow
This is a little annoying as I feel I should be able to get over there but has clipping, maybe just add some boxes or small fence, or even a small building?
This room is too dark.
Odd lighting
Forward resupply works anywhere.

The issue I'm having is that I think the visclusters I'm using are merging. I'm not sure why they are mergeing, as there are viscuts between the ones I don't want to merge.
Also, the fact that the whole map is rendering is really weird, some of those items in the map have fade distances, but are still appearing to render.
EDIT: This is also basically a "How many optimization techniques do I think know" type of thing. Learning much!

After painstakingly going through as many props as I could, and do voodoo magic with occluders, I have noticeably increased FPS in 90% of the map. Toasters may still have issues. I'm doing my best to get it to the best optimization I can, but there is only so much.
Expect a b6 out at some point in the next few days.

+ Optimization Pass. FPS should be increased across all parts of the game, but still not perfect. Make sure you feedback and post where you're getting low FPS.
+ Fixed a bug that allowed BLU to access their forward spawn room before intended
+ Lighting increased in some areas.
+ Fixed shadows between some Brushes and Rocks
Enjoy the current version here.

Kangaroo cutouts! <3 I really enjoy this map.
One thing I felt that may help your optimization problems is that almost every wall seems to be 50% window or opening to another open area. It's not wrong, but I just almost feel... agoraphobic? Some of the barns are so large and full of openings you forget that you're indoors. Now you don't really want to cut into the gameplay, but I think if you want to improve framerate and stop it being so open you could deal with some of the view to out of bounds areas. You get enough of that outside anyway. Hell, just do the old trick of chickenwire with crates in cubbyhole if you want to keep the wall interesting.

Map runs fine on my computer, but it's a pretty new system. Running around with wireframe I see several points where the entire map is being drawn, which means no matter how much you tweak the props you're going to get people complaining.
The issue is, they're being drawn outside of their fade distance.
Which is extremely confusing.

I can't test the new version just yet, but last version I only had one major FPS tanking problem. My rig normally gets me around 200-400 FPS and dips to 80-100 in heavy action. I got a steady 40 FPS concentrated around the first point and the cart path leading up to it just before the bend next to the big fence. I didn't notice any problems anywhere else.
