Just set your exit relay DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 1.1.1.1 I mean dns traffic isn't bulk traffic, let google and CloudFlare do the "work" Thanks, Matt Westfall President & CIO ECAN Solutions, Inc. Everything Computers and Networks 804.592.1672 -- Original Message -- From: "Tim Niemeyer" To:

[tor-relays] Tor Performance on Xen vs KVM

Hello, I’m just curious on how people feel about relay performance on Tor nodes running on Xen vs KVM. I’ve noticed on Xen I have increased network performance and I do like the improved modular architecture of Xen vs KVM (right now I’m working on an experimental OpenStack w/ XCP-ng

Hi nusenu After reading your Mail, I realized that not the DNS records for the exit IPs are failing. Instead this list shows problems to resolve dns on the exit. I looked at our exit and all looks fine. Resolver works very fast and nothing imporint within the logfile. Only some dudes use

[tor-relays] An easy self-DoS and how to avoid it

Hi there, I have been operating a non-exit relay and a bridge for about one week now. I discovered by chance a quite silly self-DoS which could be triggered by using a NIDS (Network Intrusion Detection System) on relays. I don't know if it is known, but I thought it was worth reporting it here.
