The mistake I made in reporting these number is that on the i686 box I used an initrd image in /dev/ram0 which is sized at 128MB. Immediately upon booting, "free" reports 133 MB of RAM in use just before starting tor. On the MIPS I used an initramfs image and "free" reports 5MB in use at the same point. It looks like my i686 numbers are messed up, too high by 128 MB. Thanks for pointing that out. I'm trying to answer the question what is the minimum amount of RAM required to run a bare minimum linux system which can support a tor relay/exit/directory node. Suggestions? -- Anthony G.
