how much to use big relays (was Re: bloxortsipt)

[Olaf Selke]

hi,

is there still any ongoing development to let tor take better advantage
from a multi-cpu system than only performing onionskin decryption? With
NumCPUs set to 8 my node looks like this:

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  P COMMAND
 8823 debian-t  20   0  607m 343m  28m R 84.3  8.7   4273:39 1 tor
14972 debian-t  20   0  607m 343m  28m S  2.7  8.7   0:02.52 1 tor

    1 root      20   0 10324  684  572 S  0.0  0.0   1:24.63 1 init
    2 root      15  -5     0    0    0 S  0.0  0.0   0:00.00 1 kthreadd

The main thread is running near 100% leaving the other five threads more
or less idle.
