Re: [tor-relays] Current pluggable transport recommendation

I am interested in this as well. I am thinking of installing a new bridge on Digital Ocean in Singapore. Considering geographical location is there a preferred pluggable transport? P.S. I'm new to the list. Computer hobbyist. I've used Linux for 15+ years almost exclusively but I'm no where near a

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA256 Why don't you use the Accounting setting? AccountingMax and AccountingStart in the settings. I think the only downside with it is that Tor does not advertise the directory port. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJYbVuPAAoJEK6hLaeDn2v6XG0P

I had a limit on one exit of 1000 gb per month - Ive set the speed as 5mbps which works for that limit (only measured on tx) so divide by 10 and youre looking at 0.5mbps on your torrc file setting - you can also set accountingmax so you dontgo over this. Also if its a new relay then the bandwi

I apreciate I'm not going to keep a relay running 24 hours on this server but I'd like to know if there was a guide for balancing uptime vs bandwidth or if this is even something tor itself would handle. If tor used all the available bandwidth I'd hit my target in just 100 seconds uptime ever
