Last I heard, the Raspberry Pi was only capable of 100Mbps because the ethernet port is on the same bus as the USB ports, and the chipset used only supports 100Mbps. I could be wrong though.

Everyone should have full duplex by now.
So he has 200 mbit on a fast ethernet port.

Remember, a relay has to download and upload as well, so your 100Mbps link would really only be able to _relay_ at 50Mbps anyway.

The hardware in your raspberry is way too weak to be able to push 100 Mbit/s.
My guess is that Atlas will show somewhere just below 1 MByte for your relay.
I have tried to find cost effective hardware for a relay that is able to push around 100 Mbit/s. All the options I have looked at turned out to be a bit too expensive for my taste (and wallet). Either the initial cost or the energy usage is too high for such hardware for my purposes.

So the best would be to use two raspis or your old gaming-workstation - depends on the costs for energy

I have a 1gbit symmetric connection at home and would like to donate 100mbit with my raspberry pi 3 model b. Since it has a 100mbit Network Interface, I'm limited to that anyways.
What Settings do I Need in my torcc to get the Maximum Speed? At the Moment I entered 12 Mbytes - which Shows up at 96 mb/s in Arm - is that correct and my understanding of things is just the opposite? Max Speed, I think, should be 12.7mb/s for a 100mbit Connection?
mb is not a thing that exists; Mb is megabits: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megabit MB is megabytes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megabyte
What you entered in torrc is currently correct. But since your board has a 100 Mbit interface anyway, it would be better if you just omit the bandwidth limit line entirely.
Also, actually hit anything remotely close to 100 Mbit, you'll absolutely have to run two instances of Tor. The Raspberry Pi 3 has 4 CPU cores, but each core on its own is not very fast. One copy of Tor only uses about 1 to 1.3 cores, so to fully utilize your hardware you need more than one. Ideally you'd set up four, but the Tor network will only accept two running from the same IPv4 address. It appears that these days there's a built-in script for that, see "man tor-instance-create".
