Since this is virtualization, make sure that features such as AES
acceleration are active.
The number of cores is no

Thank you for your suggestions, Gary.
This is actually not a "real" root server, it's a KVM server (of course). The
CPU is an AMD EPYC 7702 with 2 dedicated cores per server@3,35GHz. I chose this
server because the bandwith is unmetered and it's
The following are some of the more important config options that I use for such
a small middle relay:

I'm sorry that I now spam the mailing list, but I made a mistake.
I'm of course NOT logging at debug level, it's just one logfile (notices.log).
I logged debug when I was running the relay on the VPS because I wanted to know
why it crashed all the
I just read this research paper, maybe it's worth thinking about some kind of
implementation of this approach some time in the future.
It's an interesting read anyway.

Hi Gary,
thank you for your response.
I think I just worry too much.
I watched my relay all the time today, I had bandwidth usage of 30MB/s at times
and HTOP showed me a Load average of 0.29/0.29/0.30. I know that this is
totally fine for a dual core.
The relay is up and running for 3 days and 8
It's surprising that you're running into CPU issues. It's typically RAM that is
exhausted first.
I have 5 x Dual Core 256MB Tor Relay Nodes loadbalanced as a Single Middle
Relay that never have CPU issues. It's always a matter of running out of RAM
for me. The loadbalanced Tor Relay maintai
