Just throwing my 2 cents in, we're running loki
on a decade old dell pe1950 p3 (32bit) w/ 2GB of ram. We average
about 5.2 Mbps of traffic. That said I'm looking forward to seeing
what increases a 64 cpu would bring. -kupo On 07/26/2012 07:28 AM, Andy Isaacson

It does not seem too resource intensive but I have not been able to find any minimum system requirements. Would a current / last-generation quad core with 8GB + would suffice?A quad-core Xeon X3350 at 2.66 GHz can easily push 500 Mbps of Tor throughput (500 Mbps up, 500 Mbps down). CPU is a fairly limiting factor. Having AES-NI is a benefit. 8GB RAM is reasonable; there's no reason to have more, but less is a tight squeeze. -andy _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays |
