I remember when I've set up vnstat on a Raspberry Pi hosted in a DataCenter, without Tor... only a webserver + NTP were available And I saw a lot of RX Megabytes, that's why I've set up NTOP to monitor eth0. It was a lot of broadcast/multicast, ex: 224.0.0.0 + others

On one of my recently started Exits I do see a rather huge and increasing difference between in and out traffic that I don see on any other Exit so far. The rise doesn’t seem to be linear.. Any explanation for that - or can it just be on the back of a not fixed repetitive warning? Sep 27
