I think you mean "if" it goes live. That ticket has been open for 4 years, and originally had a milestone for 0.2.4. On Aug 18, 2016 12:36 PM, "Pi3" wrote: > Im running 5 Mbits mid node on Pi3. Cpu load is 25-30% on 1 core with full > steady traffic - no aes-ni here. >

Has anyone had any experience running *exit* nodes on Raspberry Pi-grade hardware, or slightly beefier? We are thinking of replacing the old, bulky, power-hungry machine currently running exit 78C7C299DB4C4BD119A22B87B57D5AF5F3741A79 with something on that level. It only has to hit 10Mbps.
