Hello, We are trying to limit it now using the rate limiter inside torrc. And I don’t have a modem of any sorts. This runs on a data center connection. Also this is fiber optic on a 10Gb line to the internet backbone there isn’t a issue with too many connections. My edge router is only using about half the connections. Also my ISP has only used a fourth of the total connections. I am also working with the renter of the VM’s to figure it out.
