Re: [tor-relays] Improving throughput on weak CPU?

Hi all,

Jochen sent this reply to the list, with a 4 MB attachment, which
is a bit big.

I don't think it contains anything sensitive, but I'll check before
forwarding it to anyone else.

I've discarded the message and attachment from the moderation queue.

Here's the message:

A few years ago I had some Intel Atoms with Scaleway. Same problem. Its the 
best a Atom can do :/

Which code is your relay spending most of its (main thread) time on?
If you can send us a profile, we will know where to focus our effort.

[tor-relays] Improving throughput on weak CPU?

2019-08-26 Thread Jochen

Hi there, I'm the operator of the following two exit nodes:

https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#search/family:94C268630BEDCB64E7F8881881A23D053F243C18

My CPU is an Intel C2750 (8 cores total), which supports hardware 
accelerated AES yet a single process still maxes out at only ~150mbit/s.


To get the most out of the machine and my single IPv4 address, I simply 
ran another relay which works fine, and now I'm averaging at around 
~315mbit/s.


Is there anything else I can tweak to improve throughput without having 
to order more IP addresses? I'm running Arch with stock 5.2.9 linux kernel.


That being said, true multi threading would be much appreciated and 
would help people like me a lot :-)


Regards,

Jochen
