Which is from the -current ports tree. On -stable it's tor-0.2.4.23
but I doubt that you want to run your relay on -current.

Not really. Partitioning the disk is a little different, but that's
about it. I'll admit to

It's a little bit of both. The OpenBSD port and package of Tor were
out of date last time I checked, so the first difference is that you
want to build from source. If you do so, though, you have to make the
unprivileged user yourself. This is covered

Thanks for the quick response, Zack!
I'm hesitant to give too much advice, as I've been using OpenBSD for
all of four months, and I've been a small-time sysadmin for all of
three years. So, take all this with a grain of salt.
My ultimate concern is

Is there much of a difference between setting up Tor on OpenBSD vs.
Linux or other Unix(like) systems?
Or is this just about setting up OpenBSD in general, or additional
security for relays (disk encryption, memory protection) whose use isn't
common on most general servers?

Agreed. Thanks for pulling together the statistics, too. However, I'd
like to make an argument for OpenBSD specifically.
I openly acknowledge that, at least for non-experts (and I'm one of
them), OpenBSD isn't ideal for many uses. It isn't used much
