[tor-dev] Have the Tor daemon use more cores





I've been working on the volunteer project described here
>https://www.torproject.org/getinvolved/volunteer.html.en#useMoreCores  but
>can't spend much more time on it.
>
>Right now, I have refactored circuit_receive_relay_cell() in relay.c (which
>calls relay_crypt() and eventually the AES crypt routines) to use the
>workqueue.c infrastructure similar to cpuworker.c.
>
>When the refactored code runs in single threaded mode, all seems good.  Once
>I activate the thread pool and start sending it work with
>threadpool_queue_work(), it Bootstraps 100% okay and runs for several
>minutes before crashing on cells it doesn't handle properly.
>
>I'm happy to share my code with anyone interested.
Hi Jeremy!

This is great! Thanks for this. You should definitely post your code (link to
branch or .diff) to ticket #7572 [1] so someone at some point can take a look
at it and help you out.

Thanks!
David

Thank you. I have posted my code and tried to explain my thought process on ticket #7572.
