Hoo boy! That's a big topic. I'm not going to try to do a full summary here, since I'm assuming you want a timely answer more than a complete answer. (The complete answer is in the ChangeLogs; a useful summary will probably come in the form of release notes.) > What changes can/should be made to a working v0.2.2 torrc for best 0.2.3 > operation? The preferred way to use ORPort and ORListenAddress together has changed slightly, but the old syntax should still work just fine. I believe that all previous valid configurations should still work; please correct me if I'm wrong. > What are the major changes (SMP?

I don't think the relay requirements should be significantly changed; CPU should be slightly lower for equivalent bandwidth assuming a recent OpenSSL, especially if you have a CPU that supports aesni. SMP and IPv6 hacks will probably happen in 0.2.4.x, time and development energy permitting -- Nick _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list [email protected] https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
