> Tor does need exit nodes.  The graphs on Tor statistics page show that only a quarter of Tor nodes are running as exits.  That said, if this is on a residential internet connection you might not want to be an exit node.  A few web sites blacklist the IP addresses of Tor exit nodes because they don't want anonymous traffic for whatever reason.  Likely you won't encounter such a site in your personal surfing, but you should be aware that publicly announcing yourself as a Tor exit node may constrain you.

Right, I'll think about it twice.  BTW, is there already a list of 
websites blacklisting Tor ?


> I read a lot of complains from people who say their crypto engine isn't being recognized/used by OpenSSL.  (Of course, unhappy people are more prone to posting than happy ones.)  You might want to run OpenSSL's speed test to verify that you really are getting the benefit of your hardware crypto support.

I assume you mean "by default".  I found out about cryptodev-linux here
