I'm wondering if simply (blindly) running two tor processes per available IP is any worse than anything else from a pure "lets push as much traffic as we can" (on a host not on a tor process level).
I don't see a problem with that either, unless the destination is CPU or memory constrained.
We have (and had) servers with 16 IPs -- Dual Core, 2-4GB RAM, 100 Mbit/s and less. Maybe not too nice to spin up 32 Tor relays on such machines? But I think in general it is fair to go with "2 per IP", and expect the server to be configured to listen on a sane number of IPs.
I'm wondering why a relay (not bridge) op would order that many IP addresses on a host were he can not make use of it, but adding a simple check like "stop creating new instances once RAM/instancecount below X" is possible (or "ok lets use the remaining IPs for bridges" ;). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJU48UzAAoJEFv7XvVCELh0lH0P/2OtKcLJnlQJXZ4tt1eBKFKY FMTpVONNmpPp2S4wQpDNPLT0xTd9UpjHdt70ZZ9UVnmOMaMdvmosQSHbLgsi+9EG hsb5f2PsoJR/GFXEoVM9kdRuACYDcWcNr8I0UnrH4S8Cqyho+UV6u4+cwOtJrekN H4Ni3hHkk1KiDhEXJB3KyWboIIvF3eQOjU9cuwfC8WKN+yuSdQ8pJJhC5fGuOEzb /SPC9j0QmgbHRqUrrkQS2wNcFVTJ8N6hQ8rBNZgK3enEk/jFC0c3EM4SfmpHolWb w//bHJ9Cso4KvGyJ8/CVooFUfvnx6bHlWzWMPGjpYYhhpXx5bIGwqxqv+jdtvMkF 9BHdyy7vvOStcqaTHHE6xORsEOY0FMK4b2Y3QieKraMRpbCAhsbr5FQHQ+s8CG2P fx2hMBBZu+p1ktKvpWrHy94CaBqDf4kNTXztjuf/Z8BpU1Bb9BrN5IUNXcOu4u1n ryjAnj0fh7PQIafF5R9zSZKGNYHAGtXStbD4rgSBOHhBBPUejg3oW2xs6B3s5wEk CRciJizSA5dV9hGFFsOfRDFDSxSKLmc/iVOaKwbPlanV9wnKuxsq74a+mdpWpUPF AK53H/5cNtD+ofdk5gcX4bR2t3h38G0/Sh6u7IikTShocU9+5GGsfnkzZ4alLc1s VzRPf3mUq2HNT3CPyjSE =3MZ0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
