Ah, thats it. My conntrack entries are full and temporarily increasing it resolves the problem.

What would be a reasonable conntrack limit for a tor exit?

How many conntrack entries do you actually have when you get
sendto failed: Operation not permitted
log entries?

sysctl net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_count
or
cat /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_count

Regardless of whether this is the root-cause or not,
nf_conntrack_max = 10k is probably to low for an exit relay.

If nf_conntrack_count is near nf_conntrack_max, does the problem
go away when you temporarily increase nf_conntrack_max?
