BOINC is used for discrete problems in many projects, but it has no
limitations to run long tasks. It can be run as a daemon and work
indefinitely.
BOINC - standardized platform for all projects that attract A volunteer
computing resources. There are no other restrictions on the type of
project.
Please look at CERN's BOINC-Projects. They run a virtual machine with
the Linux and BOINC is only used as a wrapper to controll working and
view a progress.
Indeed, Tor relay does not need to BOINC technically, but BOINC provides
hundreds of thousands of volunteers the opportunity to participate in
the project
by a simpliest way.
