Comment (by cypherpunks): > It's not Linux, which accelerated my relay, but NAT from VirtualBox? According to manual VirtualBox tunes buffers for itself yet, effectively disables host optimizations if any exists. > The VirtualBox NAT stack performance is often determined by its interaction with the host’s TCP/IP stack and the size of several buffers ( SO_RCVBUF and SO_SNDBUF ). For certain setups users might want to adjust the buffer size for a better performance. This can by achieved using the following commands (values are in kilobytes and can range from 8 to 1024) > Each of these buffers has a default size of 64KB -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/22798#comment:112> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online _______________________________________________ tor-bugs mailing list tor-bugs@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-bugs
