Re: [tor-relays] 300mbps FreeBSD Tor relay on HPE MicroServer Gen10 (AMD X3421)

I hope you get to optimize high-bandwidth Tor on FreeBSD as well. I would love to have this as well.
I can also help as well.

About the slow relays, looking at your company website (http://queair.net/hardware.html), you
appear to be a fan of low-power hardware like Alix or ARM boards (RPI, BeagleBone) and believe you
run relays on these. I could be wrong, as it could also be your ISP. If the cause is low-power
hardware, I'm not against low power development boards, I just feel that for Tor they're more for
low-bandwidth relays (e.g. bridges or relays on slower connections).

Sounds great.

OK, I will. When I get to setting up the server, I will post an article to my website
(https://www.neelc.org) and a copy of the article here (@tor-relays).

Thanks,
