[tor-relays] How effective is "NumCPUs"?

[Sebastian Urbach <sebastian@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Alexander

A Tor daemon running with numCPU2s is better than a single daermon on each 
core because there is less "overhead".

You can also get a great boost by enabling AES-NI hardware encryption if 
you don't have it already ...

This is the best docu available afaik:

Hello,

a relay I'm running is currently at about 0.80 load average. It has a 
dual-core CPU and I have configured "NumCPUs 2". I'm still in the process 
of finding the bandwidth limit.

Should I keep increasing "RelayBandwidthRate" on the single Tor process, or 
is it a better idea to start a second process?

(Also, does a second process need its own identity, or can it use the 
existing one?)

Best regards,
Alexander
