Comment (by pmetras):
For your information, the previous version of Tor on OpenWRT Chaos Calmer
was `TorVersion Tor 0.2.5.12` indeed, now declared insecure.
I didn't had to specify a `MaxMemInCellQueues` value with that version.
The warning "Using 256MB..." and the crashes appeared in the log with
0.2.9
May I suggest that using a negative number like `MaxMemInCellQueues
-128Mb` will enforce the given value, bypassing the default? I understand
that low-RAM hardware has to be tuned by owners and won't/should'n support
automatic defaults blindly. So if the admin decides to overwrite the
software defaults, that's his own responsibility and it should not happen
by mistake.
If I know the syntax you'll be using, I can backport the code in my
version and my relay will be up again. Thanks.
