Which Tor status page? There are a bunch and they present status differently. > I don't understand what is the reason for > this discrepancy ? Depends on the page. My guess is that you're using one of the torstatus pages running trunk, and they are presenting to you the average number of bytes your relay has actually pushed. This is a nicer way to rank relays by bandwidth than just picking some number that they claim. My second guess is that 122KB is the number published in the consensus for your relay, meaning that's the median vote by the bandwidth measurement authorities about how fast your relay actually is in practice.
