Arzhel and Moritz, could you comment on whether you prefer to manually create/specify tor instances (via 'proc_instances') as you do here [1], or whether you would make use of an instance auto configuration (two instances per IP - see example here [2])? Automate away please!! :-)
I somehow expected it - great (this is basically done ;)
In my ideal world, someone would write a "wizard" as wrapper around the ansible stuff (or whatever really), so people who run it can either specify attributes in a clear CLI language that feels "more native" to the domain, or answer questions asked by the wizard. The knowledge spectrum is "Moritz wants to use this", and "Uh. I have zero knowledge of computers, but I want to run a Tor relay. I have this cheap $5 VPS, please turn it into something useful. I don't know if it should be a bridge, or a relay. I don't even really want to know.".
Understood.
In practice and for simplicity, I wouldn't mind if you completely ignore the "make processes handle as much traffic as possible". The default should be "as automated as possible, even if suboptimal".
Agreed :) 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).
As long as you expose the "expert options for tuning", that's totally fine with me. :-)
Does this help?
Thanks for your answer. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJU47/UAAoJEFv7XvVCELh0jVkP+QHDYwica6a2GLKhgkuapqOc NmxMMD5vRmoyx51FyUbtVUaQ8sYHeNQHe+axVIgGMWepsH5puIfQT4aH1g18VXle h7DuU+/QYaAij+lHxrGU7UJhaEXZAi6OJ0NxNd67ivf+TBCJKYkybFBUgwBeHgVW 0RYhK24xT9yzeTEOd1C6ppJaIXAI/WzJdpnoQZADYiMfra34rzo8QD9xO/EW+QXw LT8vIegT3NIdc6cDFHnB0+sWiHEn26N8PrHiRnq2FsvbclJqg0fePnlj900ZynF1 YBxXSGQuzJ5Z8K/q+5jj8Q8DikXm45QH55kdqQStD7id9Es2j7ygGb1ywKSW6FjU edrgQUskJuFv0YwuY/pwxyJLuB7dpm4OT4cZNQrEzo3aFM0lPWthfXkQsvrZXItP RCorU6Y3Dwczqn21EEWE1w+m2oit5+Wdm7n3qE/sYI78LB5780UKrvR16n7ujGii QsX8dTei+F6wgvgIsdPfIxycnRL6uKsoUCDTHMGhiSJW8v6ZbxKDVlw5uf+Ex7KQ FX6Ux6q8dgHFZQGGk1q0ImvvrIU5KCUfRWlIOdZgdSlieyhSkur5sTeFDuXxnF9N 2t+Jo4iJPulZ1vd7WOPlO6N2zyQCG4oOO3FxCp8D0iQV4h1tPo/nZBVCDGcCobxR r+VSy8W3vy5+01fBfFuT =PEcd -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
