Hi,
For about 15 hours straight, my relay was being hammered by
connections/handshakes.
I see lots of these:

I see that too from time to time.

That should have been: about 3 months.

I've been running a relay for about months now. It runs on an 1.6 Ghz single
core Atom with hyperthreading, 1GB of RAM. It's on my home connection; I
advertise
only 176 KB/sec.
Under normal conditions, it pumps around 100KB/sec, it has around 600
connections,
it uses around 20% CPU. Everyth

This may not work or be an option for you/everyone, but if I change

If you have 50 down and 10 up, then the 10 is your number. The lower of the
two.
As a relay, all data you receive, you send out again. So you have 1280 KB of
potential relay capacity.
Your ISP probably has a FUP you may violate if you constantly use up all your
bandwidth.
You could set your
As of between 18:00 and 19:00 yesterday (9/30/13) directory traffic on
my relay has gone up dramatically, from mere background noise to more
than half my advertised bandwidth, and hasn't really come down since.
I pasted the numbers from /opt/var/lib/tor/state into a spreadsheet
and made a grap
Over the past week, consensus weight fraction and bandwidth usage have been
gradually ramping up again.
For the past 2 days, bandwidth maxes out from time to time but most of the time
it hovers around 50% of my advertised rate. If it stays like this for a few
more days, I may advertise a bit mo
About 2 days ago, around midnight of September 20, bandwidth usage on my relay
dropped from averaging a bit over 100KB/s to around 20KB/s. It's been low ever
since. Consensus weight dropped accordingly. You can see on the graphs on atlas
and globe. My relay is named jobiwan. There seems to be no
Hello Tor-Relays members,
I'm new to running a relay. (I've read the last 2 months archives of this
list.)
Started about a week ago, and have run 4 versions. Now on 0.2.4.17-rc.
Running on a low power CPU, so I'm keeping a fairly close watch on it, trying
to figure out what 'normal' behavior/
