I used that at my home server, but I'd like to use my server as Tor relay also.

But as many knows, running BitTorrent over Tor is really bad idea. It seriously harms security of Tor network. So I thought about the solution about how to use them simultaneously.

1. One machine, Two services.

If that situation not harms the security, I will use them on one machine.

Does your home router support a lot of connections? Maybe it does, if BitTorrent already works. If not, you might find it crashes or slows down.

But if it does, it will happen if you run Tor on the same machine, or different machines, because it's the router that's hitting its limit.
