Comment (by yawning):

 Replying to [comment:6 TORques]:
 > However, this non-exit relay can easily reach **5 MB/sec or more** on my
 tweaked Windows XP platform. Not bad for the TOR network, isn't it? My
 Ookla test says 24 MB/s download and 10 MB/s upload and my CPU can process
 easily a TOR stream of 5 MB/s.

 Bulk single connection throughput is not why I brought that up. See #98
 among other issues. If your router/relay can't handle a large number of
 simultaneous connections, it'll end up underutilized and be bad for the
 network.  Past that if it works, great.  If it breaks, patches accepted.
