This morning I contacted the HostEurope support. They were very friendly but refused to increase the parameter. They told me that the product is designed this way and they cannot change anything. They advised me to order a product with a higher number of tcp sockets. But even the high-end vserver product for EUR 70 ($90) per month only provides 1550 tcp connections (http://faq.hosteurope.de/index.php?cpid=13281). All these HostEurope vserver products are crippled regarding numtcpsock. Bottom line: HostEuropes vserver cannot be recommended for tor relays. I will update the wiki accordingly. I will move to another ISP. In the meantime I will play around with the ConstrainedSocksSize parameter to get the most out of the vserver. Moritz, from which ISP did you get this $20 vserver?
