Ah, just too late :-) Although this isn't hardening-related.

I'd like to also add the ‘--enable-openbsd-malloc’ configure flag to our 
Tor <https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq.html.en#RelayMemory>.

Since adding it, I've been able to serve more traffic more reliably on a 
memory-constrained relay — without any noticable increase in load. This 
might be different on a SoC, although I'd suspect RAM would be the 
limiting factor there too.

To anyone willing to give it a try & give their opinion on the matter: 
I'd be very grateful.

Kind regards,

T G-R
