Some times it stabillizes very fast, some times you can get long-lasting methuselae and some times you don't even know when will it end.

Putting that example pattern in an odd-by-odd torus makes a long-lasting "river":

Even in a smaller torus, the lifespan apparently can be very high. I ran a 41-by-37 version in Golly for 50 megaticks, and by that time it did not settle into any period below 1 megatick:

I don't know whether at T = 50,000,000 it remains merely a predecessor of some oscillator, or by that time it already settled into a phase of some high-period oscillator with period above 1,000,000. (I would expect the former, as in small tori most soups eventually settle into low-period oscillators.)

At some point, the "river" changes direction. I counted 3 times if i'm right.
I have ran the Identify feature 3 times, and it still gives nothing.
Assuming your "settled into osc" conjecture is true, the period is more than 14.000.000.

For the first pattern, it is destined to be an infinite growth, at about generation 2^21. Still big.
You can make it a sawtooth to get this:

x = 6, y = 6, rule = 02i3i/2aen3iy4ct/3
4.BA$A3.2A$4.2A$4.2A$A3.2A$4.BA!

The pattern's population is never odd, due to its symmetry. And yes, it is a tetrational sawtooth. (Are there even pentational sawtooths, or higher?)

In the second pattern, after running it for 7.5 million generations (in golly), it just looks like a big plus. The vertical line has puffers, and an oblique line of spaceships that has slope ≈25.

Well, my signature is officially cool.

[see post]
I don't know whether at T = 50,000,000 it remains merely a predecessor of some oscillator, or by that time it already settled into a phase of some high-period oscillator with period above 1,000,000. (I would expect the former, as in small tori most soups eventually settle into low-period oscillators.)
At some point, the "river" changes direction. I counted 3 times if i'm right.
I have ran the Identify feature 3 times, and it still gives nothing.
Assuming your "settled into osc" conjecture is true, the period is more than 14.000.000.
At the time of writing, i need to go to sleep soon. Good night, i guess.

Oh, and if you want to continue, here's the RLE:

I'm currently running apgsearch on this ruleset, it looks interesting. There might be a gun.

I hoped to get a gun by arranging two interacting p29 oscillators, but got this instead (settles around T = 500):
