 From https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-talk/2012-May/024328.html:

 '''I found a strange behavior in Tor relays that allow me to make a remote
 Tor relay crash or at least have a 100 % CPU usage. It crashes only if it
 is possible to send more data than RAM (and swap) can store in 300 s (5
 minutes) to the relay.'''

 Proof of concept attached to this ticket. I have not tested this myself.
