Does your server CPU support hardware AES extensions?
Run this command in your shell (bash most likely):
lscpu | grep aes
If it returns the string AES, then you can make use of the crypto hardware acceleration.
This severely reduces CPU usage by Tor.
Also, if you want to reduce CPU usage further, throttle bandwidth, I wouldn't use external tools not provided by Tor, unless you absolutely have to.
Take a look at RelayBandwidthRate / RelayBandwidthBurst, right here:

Hi, yes I got it running. Wondering is there a single debain command to set up automatic upgrades for tor, and is there a torrc configuration to limit CPU usage? Thanks

Hi,
have you installed the obfs4proxy? If you follow this guide: https://community.torproject.org/relay/setup/bridge/debian-ubuntu/ you should be good to go.
I've added "BridgeDistribution https" for my bridge, if you follow the post install page there is written something about distribution channels.

Hi,
So for Debain 12, what is the command to install OBFS4? For my bridge at https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#details/0E547D99DEB753B20A19EEAA053CE...
Even though I configured obfs4 in torrc its saying no transport protocols. Thanks.
