hah, mine is -=severely=- under utilized......
NO CPU Load: https://puu.sh/EyX6N/81a5d5c76e.png
4 Mbps of throughput 2 Mbps each way or only ~ 20Mbps ea way:

Plenty of bandwidth: https://puu.sh/EyX9O/65334af451.png
Even to Germany: https://puu.sh/EyXbI/33cb46ac55.png
Even to Brazil: https://www.speedtest.net/result/8719378576
Even to London: https://puu.sh/EyXk4/f86e74e856.png
I realize that "false advertising of bandwidth to abuse the network
protocols" has impacted the "consensus weight" assigned to various
nodes.
But there -definitely- needs to be a more intelligent system developed
for determining this.
I just proved that I have 2 GIGABITS of bandwidth.... HUNDREDS to other
countries, but there is 20 MegaBits flowing through my relay, lol.

Good morning from Wisconsin,
After reading about how middle relays in the USA go largely underutilized, and
having quietly run my own middle relay for several years, would it be more
beneficial to the network to launch several new bridges instead of more middle
relays?
Good question.
Very few tor relays are actually under-utilised.
Many operators expect 100% utilisation, but low-latency protocols work
best around 10% utilisation. We're currently at 30%.
So feel free to deploy a middle, and if it's fast and stable enough,
it might become a guard.
Some bridges are kept in reserve. Others are handed out using less
popular methods. So feel free to deploy multiple bridges on the same
IP address or subnet.
