In other words, if I sorted the descriptors by "measured" value, what

I *think* that would be the ordering of 'relays who receive the most tor client traffic due to having a more highly weighted heuristic for relay selection'.
that would be accurate, is my understanding
Is there documentation of why this "heuristic for relay selection" does not correlate that well with "bandwidth" in the descriptor? I've attached a couple of scatter plots pulled from moria1's "measured" and "bandwidth" values for each descriptor a couple hours ago (and the plots look similar from the other bwauths). One shows all values, the other shows the bottom 75% of values (sorted by measurements), and neither shows as much of a correlation as I would expect. Are there factors other than bandwidth that contribute to this "heuristic for relay selection"?
Thanks, Anna
