Problems with TOR & FreeBSD -resolved

[Warren Barrow]

Roger,

Thanks for the information. 

I am using the new libevent with TOR 0.1.0.10 and have remained 
operational for several days now.  I changed my server config to act 
only as a middleman due to my lack of resources (700mhz, 128mb ram on a 
FreeBSD laptop).  My server is pushing between 100-400 KB/sec with the 
TOR process sitting at almost idle.  I'm extremely pleased with the 
performance.

FYI- two days ago I introduced a friend to TOR.  He immediately logged 
into his server, set up TOR (crackhoe), and is now pushing a nice amount 
of traffic.  It's good to see additional high speed servers come online.

Lastly, I received my TOR tshirt a couple of weeks ago.  Anyone that 
hasn't received a tshirt should definitely get one if they are still 
available.
