As Aeris, teor and me tried to explain, this is _not_ about "adding more
resources", but since you keep ignoring that it is a bit pointless to
state that over and over again.

teor gave some rather comprehensive answers and has said pretty much
anything relevant I guess.

In the end it should be about optimizing exit bandwidth cost (many
MBit/s for fewer $) no matter how many tor processes it requires to get
the most out of your hardware, number of available IPs and uplink
connectivity.

I'm not sure I would run a stateful firewall on an dedicated exit server
at all.
