The problem on vservers is, that your usage of hardware resources is very limited (which you can't do anything about!), so you'll have to figure out just how much your vserver can take. I'm running it on a Strato-vServer and have no warnings whatsoever with a Bandwith limit of ~200 KB/s. If I set the limit much above that, my log gets flooded. But as I said, you're gonna have to figure out your limit for your particular server.
Oh, here's one more piece of advice that should save you some trouble: Don't use the Accounting - options in torrc, but rather the BandwithRate & -Burst. With accounting, tor will try to burn the allowed traffic as fast as possible within the first period, and thus lead to LOTS of warnings in your log. So grab a calculator and do the math for yourself ;) Regards, Andrew -- cerebellum - tor 0.1.2.14 on SUSE 9.3
