And I thought this was why it says somewhere in DOCs or FAQ that a user can better hide what she does if her own tor client also transmits relay traffic. This is the strongest point of tor against other anon systems with less users: The more people use it, the more likely it "wasn't me". It would be interesting to experiment if a relatively low RelaySpeed (e.g. 10KB/s) setting would already attract enough traffic to always sufficiently hide the users own activities.
