[tor-relays] Unwarranted discrimination of relays with dynamic IP

Again, bits or bytes. I can't believe I'm repeating myself, don't you
people read?

The ORIGINAL (version 1) Raspberry Pi had a max of 1 MegaBYTE.

1 MegaBYTE = 8 megaBITS

Obviously other factors limit performance, but looking at just the maximum
network capacity of a Raspberry Pi 1, it could handle 8Mbit/s.

let me tell:
https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/AA44C4BE3C90DCAAC09E5CD2615071
0AAA80D58B
https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/CA9A5D5C4688F04EEC1AF810B0FD34
8109FA17FB

are sharing the same dynamic IP on a Rasp2 -cut every 24 hours

         day         rx      |     tx      |    total    |   avg. rate
     ------------------------+-------------+-------------+---------------
     05.12.2016    27,20 GiB |   28,39 GiB |   55,59 GiB |    5,40 Mbit/s


that is slight above 1 Mbit/s  :-)


Best regards

Wow nice bandwidth you are pushing through Paul! You mean two Raspi 2's
sharing an Internet connection, each relaying 27 Gbytes per day at 5.4
Mbit/s on the average?? Total 10.8 Mbit/s?? Or 2.7 Mbit/s each?

Definitely refutes the previously claimed 1 Mbit/s Tor limit on Raspi, and
means that Raspi has nothing to do with the ridiculously low utilization of
my relay, just as I thought. As a matter of fact this means that whoever is
NOT running a relay on a Raspi  (or two, or four of them) is wasting money,
unless he has a computer lying about with nothing better to do.

Also, what's the max memory and CPU utilization on your Raspi (I have read
somewhere that Tor is only capable of utilizing 2 of the 4 CPU cores), and
what kind of Internet connection do you have?

 BTW the $35 Raspi 3 has 33% more CPU power than your Raspi 2 and the same
amount of memory.
