Hi Colin, On a €3,- VPS I got conntrack errors in my syslog, as it had not enough resources to track all connections. So I configured a stateless firewall to no longer have to track the connections. Now it seems to be running fine. I got my burst limit on 1Gbps and de default rate on 0.5Gbps. I have not set a monthly max. A good place to get started on configuring a stateless firewall is the arch wiki about tor: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Tor#iptables Enjoy, Maarten Colin wrote on 13-04-17 21:54: > Hello all, > > I'm having difficulties running exit nodes on VPS provided by Pulse > Servers. > > Conntrack shows the number of connections climbing to 30,000 and this is > untenable (at least for the cheap vps from this provider). > > I have tried MaxAdvertisedBandwidth at many settings with the same > results, number of connections eventually climbs to around 30k. > > I'm interested in input regarding: > > * is it possible to reduce the number of connections, how does one > achieve this? > * given I have no other points of reference, is 30k connections on a > typical low-cost VPS unreasonable? > * anything else I should be considering? > > Thanks all. > -- > Colin > > > _______________________________________________ > tor-relays mailing list > tor-relays@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays >
