Hey Ch1keen,
If I'm understanding you correctly, you'd like to run both a Tor relay ( thanks! ) and a torrent client on the same machine? This shouldn't cause any problems if the relay you are running is not an exit relay. Even if it is, I don't think you would see too much degradation on the torrent side of things.
You should have no problem running both of them on your network as long as you don't route your torrent traffic over Tor. To do this, you would have to configure transmission to use a particular proxy.
Bottom line, you shouldn't have any issues running transmission and a relay on the same machine, so long as you don't route torrent traffic over the Tor network.
Does this answer your question?
All the best, Rob

Transmission is the open source torrent application which supports web-based interface. So when users upload torrent files from other computers to that server, it automatically downloads files written in torrent files.
I used that at my home server, but I'd like to use my server as Tor relay also.
But as many knows, running BitTorrent over Tor is really bad idea. It seriously harms security of Tor network. So I thought about the solution about how to use them simultaneously.
- One machine, Two services.
If that situation not harms the security, I will use them on one machine.
- Two machines, Two services.
Running that services one machine to one service to avoid the crashes between two.
- Gave up running one service.
If really no way to run both, I will gave up running Transmission service.
Which could be best solution I will make?
