Are you *sure* you're not running anything else? Not crond? Not ntpd? Not iptables? If not SSH, how do you administer the VPS?
What type of virtualization is the VPS using? If not OpenVZ, make sure you have virtual memory on the system. You can create a swapfile if don't already have a swap partition.
Do you have SELinux enabled in the VPS? if so, get rid of it.Finally, you may have to ditch nginx and just use Tor and the system utilities to monitor performance.

Hello, I have a VPS with 512 MB RAM. I run nothing on it except nginx and a Tor relay. The relay is an entry guard and moves about 20 MB/s. It seems that the kernel is killing the Tor process with "out of memory" errors. Are there any tips for mitigating this? I don't have the money right now to upgrade to the next higher VPS plan which has more RAM, unfortunately. Maybe there's some config settings that I can modify to limit the RAM usage? Or, am I just out of luck?
