Hello, I just installed a new relay in a fresh FreeBSD installation. The relay starts fine, except for a warning that I don't understand. Then it dies all of a sudden. The time before it dies is different every time. I have googled for the warnings but could not find anything. Does anyone he

[tor-relays] What kind of hardware do I need for my relay

2017-03-17 Thread Farid Joubbi
Hello, I have been running low powered middle relays for a few years. Now I think it's time for a small upgrade. I haven't looked at computer hardware for a long time. What is the cheapest and most power efficient CPU/motherboard that can saturate 100 Mbit/s as a Tor relay? Thanks. __

A raspberry will do fine as long as you do not expect huge speeds. The CPU is not capable of pushing data very fast. Expect somewhere around 0,5 Mbyte/s (4 Mbit/s). If you go smaller and cheaper you will not reach even that speed. So it depends on what kind of speeds you are after. A relay d

2016-10-12 Thread Farid Joubbi
The hardware in your raspberry is way too weak to be able to push 100 Mbit/s. My guess is that Atlas will show somewhere just below 1 MByte for your relay. I have tried to find cost effective hardware for a relay that is able to push around 100 Mbit/s. All the options I have looked at turned ou

Hello, I am thinking of setting up a new relay. I know that the hardware in the server is going to be the bottleneck, not my Internet connection. I have a problem deciding on which OS to use for the relay. A few years ago when I had a similar relay going, I had it running on OpenBSD first.
