[tor-relays] Newbie needs help

[tor admin]

Tor project recommends 16Mbits/s in each direction minimum 
<https://community.torproject.org/relay/relays-requirements/> so you 
should be fine.

However note the concurrent connections requirement, which can 
"overwhelm consumer-level routers."   That might be something to watch.
