Partially depends on know how and economic activity. I could see a stable
government with prosperous industrial base say TL4-5 rising more rapidly
for the government/military/corporations... fastest in an F-tech. Once
people know something is possible, it should be faster to recreate than it
took to develop the first time, though lack of documentation will make
some repeating if dead ends inevitable.
Need to go to the assumption on what TL is, though... is it the planetary
average, that of the starport, or the max possible for the elites?
I'd love to see some rules for that sort of thing, though.

Does anyone have any thoughts about those RCES bootstrap missions. If they
are trying to restablish a world's pre-coolapse industrial base, how much
of the old industrial stuff still remains, and how much effort does the
RCES have to make to get factories etc. back up and running.
A large supply of power is obvious as is the tech knowledge to run it. They
will obviously have to replace certain components - ones with limited life
such as seals, but is that it. Is it just spending a few £ to get the plant
back up and running or is it a major rebuild job.
If they are goimg to have to spend in the orer of 50% of the buiuld cost to
get pre-collapse plant up and running, then the RCES plans to expand over
diaspora and build sufficient infrastructure are not going to happen in a
few years but will take a decade at least - even if they only fully uplift
a few choice worlds.
