There are a few talks on youtube that explain this a little. The Chinese are pretty successful  blocking bridges. The last thing I heard was that they will send every server which creates a SSL connection so someone in China a Tor-Handshake and block it if it responds.

In other countries bridges aren't needed this might explain the little use.

Well you are just a bridge.. Don't expect tons of traffic.

P.s: For a bridge this is already "a lot" of traffic.

I've been running a Tor bridge on the Amazon EC2 cloud computing
platform (per instructions at https://cloud.torproject.org/) since
July 27, and while the bridge is up and running according to the logs,
there doesn't seem to be much traffic running through it, i.e., latest
logs indicate Tor uptime is 2 days 12 hours with 2 circuits open; 6.6
MB sent and 45.75 MB received. Have I somehow managed to misconfigure
the bridge or is this normal?

Best,
Shawn
