As far as I understand you, you're trying to work out a traffic engineering policy that will cause tor to work better for most people while only impacting a minority. Ssh doesn't use much bandwidth; what it needs is low latency and stable servers. So if you are setting up a fast stable tor server, you'd be doing some people a favour by opening port 22. Since ssh uses negligible bandwidth, you won't be impacting web traffic at all. Juliusz
