Re: [tor-relays] Info about HW Encryption on Raspberry



Hi,

You could try to set the loglevel to "debug". As far as i can remember you should get that info when you restart the daemon.

Hi,
I have a Raspberry Pi3 that runs a Tor mid-relay and I’ve noticed that in the last weeks it reaches high temperatures (about 76°C) due to high CPU usage when Tor traffic increases. It did not reach this temperature until this summer (but it is not due to an higher environment temperature), so I don’t know if it can be related to 0.3 version. Now I’m running Tor 0.3.1.7. Should Tor 0.3.x use Raspberry Pi3 AES-NI hardware acceleration to reduce high cpu usage? Is there a way to check and enable it if disabled?
