My Relay has slowed significantly.

Hello all. This is my first time using a mailing list, so apologies if Im not doing it right! I have ran a couple of Tor Relays now for a few months, one was steady and reliable, and providing about 2MB/s of bandwidth. Of late, its slowed down dramatically. A reboot resolved it temporarily, but its slowed right down again, below 500KB/s. You can see the graph here- https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/2DAEE4EBA687A517F8B473894341A56820CDD… Does anyone have any suggestions? I have checked with my ISP and they are not throttling or managing the traffic in anyway, and my CPU and RAM isnt under heavy load. Ive uploaded my torrc here- http://pastebin.com/ZCnLQF0w I have read that file discriptors can also be a problem, Im not sure if this is relevant but- $ sysctl fs.file-nr fs.file-nr = 832 0 199036 Thanks in advance for your help, keep up the good work!

Hi, - Was invited as a speaker at CryptoParty Luxemburg. Gave two talks about Tor, one basic introduction/overview, and one about operating Tor exits. Afterwards, I helped starting Frënn vun der Ënn, a Luxemburg copy of Torservers.net by local members of the CCC -- some of which I already met at Haxogreen 2012, a Luxemburg hacker camp. They are awaiting official approval by the government, and then I will probably sign over our Luxemburg exit to them ( www.enn.lu ) - Wrote a German article about Tor by request of the CCC for their printed magazine "Datenschleuder". It will also be published on the web. - Wrote a small Python script that stores relay contact info from Onionoo data in a local database, together with "first seen" and "last seen" dates. I am currently limiting it to relays faster than 25 MBit/s. This will help me to welcome new relay operators, as well as contact "missing" operators to ask why they are gone. I am currently not publishing the database itself, but the script is at https://github.com/moba/tor-contacts-tracker - I became more accustomed to editing the Torproject website. Pushed some changes, most importantly a completely revised set of install instructions on Mac OSX using the unsafe Homebrew. https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7989 - Most of my time again went into Help Desk and IRC. For number of closed tickets, see Runa's report which will come soon. - Was offered 2-3 Gbit/s of spare bandwidth at a friendly CH ISP. Passed the offer to the Swiss Privacy Foundation to avoid running more high bandwidth nodes as Torservers.net. -- Moritz Bartl https://www.torservers.net/
