It's running longer longer than I would have expected. That may be because it takes a while for the clients to find out that your relay got out of hibernation. > If I set it to 25kb, it runs all day - and switching off hibernation > becomes possible. When the relay is available all day, it's likely that it will permanently run at the set RelayBandwithRate (that's what happens with my relays). If you're not running a directory mirror, your relay will send and receive about 2 GiB each day (4 GiB total). > Which is the most useful option?
