Re: [tor-relays] 7000 concurrent connections

Just try it!

Tor will limit the amount of connections it accepts based on how much RAM you have.

Hello all,

I'm interested in running a relay. I should meet all the requirements for a guard/middle, except handling 7000 concurrent connections, which I'm unsure of. The website seems to tell me to try it and see what happens, but what exactly am I watching out for? Is the router going to fail entirely, slow down, or something else?

Thanks in advance.
