Comment:
This is definiteley a major issue. At the moment it seems impossible to
run a stable relay on a low-mem device like the Raspberry Pi, since the
Tor process gets killed by the oom-killer repeatedly. This prevents tens
of thousands of devices being stable entry guards or even stable exits.
Lowering the MaxMemInQueues minimum to 384 MB sounds like a good solution.
