Consensus weight is no lo ger based on advertised bandwidth to prevent abuse.

It is based on measured and observed actual throughput.

Hi,

After having my Primcast.com dedicated server suspended, I signed up for
a dedicated server from Psychz Networks in their Dallas location to run
a FreeBSD-powered Tor exit relay.

While Psychz is a bit more expensive than Primcast/ServerRoom (and that
is with an special offer), I get a slightly faster server and far better
customer support.

One problem is that the consensus weight value is rather low in
proportion to the advertised bandwidth value, when they should be
approximately similar.

In fact, my server's CPU usage never goes beyond 1%.

Is this normal now that sbws is being deployed? Or is it bad peering on
my relay?
