Re: [tor-relays] Relay operators meetup @ Onionspace, Berlin (in solidarity with Torservers)

I don't think that "newer tor versions" had any MyFamily related changes that impact concurrent connections

things that might help with increasing bandwidth usage:

* run a more open exit policy
* tune DNS performance
* add IPv6 connectivity + enable IPv6 exiting
* run more tor instances
* don't use crowded /16 subnets
* choose well connected ASes
* use faster hardware

OpenBSD is probably not the best choice if you are trying to increase bandwidth usage

This question is surprising to me since Zwiebelfreunde - presumably present at the meeting -
provide IP addresses to the operator of that family and Markus is also on this list.

https://apps.db.ripe.net/db-web-ui/#/lookup?source=ripe&key=185.220.101.0%20-%20185.220.101.127&type=inetnum

btw: there is no such thing as a "family fingerprint".
