Since this is virtualization, make sure that features such as AES
acceleration are active.

The number of cores is not really relevant since Tor is not
multi-threaded. The EPYC 7702 can boost up to 3.35 GHz, check that it
reaches that under load.

Also since you have 2 cores, you can run two instances of Tor.

I assume you mean 1 Gbit/s.

By Frantech do you mean buyvm.net ?

If it works the same way as buyvm, your VM should have a single public
IPv6 address. You can request a /48 or /56 prefix to be routed to that
public IPv6.

Or do you actually need help to have it setup on Hardened BSD?
