Comment (by arma):

 Replying to [comment:5 ryru]:
 > we have not tried the MaxMemInQueues setting yet. It is unset, therefor
 Tor should pick a proper configuration based on the physically available
 memory, shouldn't it?

 There's a notice-level log when Tor starts up, telling you what value it
 picked, e.g.
 {{{
 May 10 03:34:40.480 [notice] Based on detected system memory,
 MaxMemInQueues is set to 8192 MB. You can override this by setting
 MaxMemInQueues by hand.
 }}}
