The question is from an ab initio in Linux, servers and Tor guts and Tor's security integrity. I am asking from the point of view of running more than one Tor thingy on one server at one ip address. It has been said it is bad to run a Tails torrent and a relay or exit on the one VPS. Plus I don't know the actual steps to setting most things up on a server by command line.
You can run up to 2 Tor processes per IP address. Apart from obvious resource restrictions, you can run as many Tor processes on any machine as you like.
I don't see a problem with seeding Tails and running a Tor relay on the same VPS.
The second part was asking if there is anyway to control the cpu or whatever load draws attention to Tor.
Only indirectly, by limiting its bandwidth.
