I've had no problems with the stock raspbian. However I've only got
720kb going thru it as a Obs. bridge. I'm constrained by the cable
upload limits more than anything else.
As far as running it on family members connections, I would likely have
it set even lower, and I could just SSH into it to keep it up.
If you ever get a good set of optimizations please let us know. I think
anything we can do to make the Pi something close to a "Plug and Play"
 set up would help to get it adopted by the average user.



I'm definitely intending on publishing them, but life has been complex
for a while.  I'll get to it though.  I had to take my Pi relay down
because once I got it so it could weather some of the circuit creation
storms, they started crashing my *router*.  So, between very little
time and not having it up, I haven't been able to experiment for a few
weeks.



BTW, there is definitely something going on with these circuit creation
storms, but I have no idea whether it's normal or evidence of a DDOS or
network instability or what.  I've seen similar stuff happen on a way,
way bigger relay I run, and if it manages to show up in the logs there,
it's BIG, because that's a moderately beefy server.  The Pi is like the
canary in the coal mine.  Not sure what's going on.
