Thanks for the kick in the butt. I have upgraded the system (including Tor). If I ever upgrade from ADSL to fiber increasing the bandwidth will be an option.

The largest issue I have had is being placed on blacklist which prevented getting to some websites altogether (eg. Duke Energy, MonoPrice) and others that would claim I was using a proxy (eg. Hulu) or would fail with no error message when trying to complete a purchase (eg. Tesla).  I finally tracked this down to BrightCloud, if anyone is having a similar problem. They should make the bother of differentiating between someone using a proxy and someone running a non-exiting Tor relay, but they didn't seem to be motivated to. AT&T disconnected my service when I was configured as an exit node, due to an abusive Tor user, but at least that was rational.
