I know it's come up before here and elsewhere, but I'll be bringing up
a couple of relays in the next couple of weeks, and I'm interested in
any optimization.  One will run FreeBSD, and the other OpenBSD, both
on dedicated hardware.

There *shouldn't* be much to do with FreeBSD to run a fast Tor relay.
 Certainly the Nexflix/openconnect example is sufficient evidence.

For OpenBSD, outside of /etc/login.conf changes, I'll have to see.

Intel is the obvious choice for NICs.. .hoping for ixgb(4) but em(4)
or igb(4) should work fine.

The question I have is running multiple Tor instances.  At what point
is it necessary?
