Maybe this article from the Tor FAQ will help: http://archives.seul.org/or/relays/Aug-2010/msg00034.html
Thanks.
According to the article, Tor can only get 100Mbps per CPU core, and Tor doesn't use any more than 2 cores because it's not fully multithreaded.
I only have one core (on a vmware virtual server) but I am far from 100 Mbps:

You can only run 2 instances of Tor on the same IP address, which means a maximum of 800Mbps, if you do it right.
I have only one instance but with one core it probably is pointless to run more instances ...
