The following are some of the more important config options that I use for such
a small middle relay:
# Tor: A non-exit relay should be able to handle 7000 concurrent connections
ulimit -n 65535
DirCache 0
ExitRelay 0
# Note: The default MaxMeminQueues is 3/4 (i.e., 192MB) of Total System Memory
(i.e., 256MB)
# Uncomment the following line to limit Tor to use less System Memory (i.e.,
128MB)
MaxMemInQueues 192 MB
Log notice file /tmp/torlog
Log notice syslog
RunAsDaemon 1
DataDirectory /tmp/tor/torrc.d/.tordb
AvoidDiskWrites 1

Hi Gary,
thank you for your response.
I think I just worry too much.
I watched my relay all the time today, I had bandwidth usage of 30MB/s at times
and HTOP showed me a Load average of 0.29/0.29/0.30. I know that this is
totally fine for a dual core.
The relay is up and running for 3 days and 8 hours now and I already moved
~700GB in each direction (upload/download). I was just concerned because the
VPS started crashing after 2 weeks solid uptime, but I should have set stricter
bandwith limits.
You can't really compare a VM with a root server, I don't think this will
happen again.
It's ok for me to invest a little more and have a fast and stable relay this
way. The traffic was capped with the VPS plan, this was obviously a big
disadvantage, now I can use as much traffic as I want with a 2,5Gbit link
(1Gbit guaranteed).
For your info, the most important lines of my config:
SocksPort 0
Log notice file /var/log...
Log debug file /var/log...
ORPort 443
RelayBandwithRate 1000Mbit
RelayBandwithBurst 1000Mbit
Exit policy reject *:*
ContactInfo & Nickname set, of course... ;)
Is there anything I should change?
Thanks for your help!
Best Regards...
