[tor-relays] Relay Bandwidth
Greetings all! Setting up a new Digital Ocean Tor Relay. DO is giving me 3000 Gig a month. Is there a tutorial that I can use to calculate the bandwidth? I've searched around the web and for some reason people seem to dance around the question. They give examples not relevant to me and zero math showing how the came to their answer. As usual, any help will be appreciated :-) Sysmanager7 Sent with [Proton Mail](https://proton.me/) secure email.___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays

[tor-relays] Warn:
I got the below message on my relay #2. It's been in operation for a year and a half. First time I've ever got one of these. 0re7:26:40 [WARN] Your computer is too slow to handle this many circuit creation requests! Please consider using the MaxAdvertisedBandwidth config option or choosing a more restricted exit policy.

Last eve it had been up four days. As of this writing just over 2 hours. Or is this another way to muck up a relay?

I'm trying to avoid shutting down my relay's due to financial burden Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

[tor-relays] Crashed Relay
I was notified by Uptime Robot that relay 1 of 3 had been shut down. Unfortunately I found this out 12 hours after the fact. guard flag is lost. journalctl -u tor@default Nov 01 01:03:18 ubuntu-s-1vcpu-2gb-nyc1-01 Tor[328387]: I learned some more directory information, but not enough to build a circuit: We need more microdescrors: we have 6178/6618, and can only build 49% of likely paths. (We have 99% of guards bw, 50% of midpoint bw, and 98% of exit bw = 49% of path bw.) ptors: we have 6178/6618, and can only build 49% of likely paths.

CPU usage according to NYX is 90/95%. That has been the last three weeks or so. Prior to that, average CPU usage was 30% or less. Current BW/Burst is 3/4 MBs on torrc and nyx. Prior was BW/Burst 4/5 *Me - retired fixed income. Average billing for 3 Digital Ocean Droplets was $40. budget is good with that. Octobers billing - $87.50 I used 10 gb instead of 6Gb. Essentially a $40 overage. It's almost as if, torrc and nyx are being ignored.

[tor-relays] Restarting Tor
Greetings All, I have three relays that are in need of an upgrade and reboot. What is the best way to restart these relays without loosing flags or time? Secondly how long can a relay be down before flags are dropped? Thank you for any help!

[tor-relays] Relay Control Port
In torrc I have the control port commented out. I'm told the control port is not supposed to be listed on the relay itself. Below, is now what it says. How do I get rid of it?
