Thanks; this was a really helpful reply; when the electricity goes off, one tends to check one's own plug rather than think the main transformer just died. Especially the capacity/latency part; I would never have gotten that by myself. ​Sent with ProtonMail Secure Email.​ ‐‐‐ Original Me

Yes, I have experienced the same thing; my throughput is slower as well. Not only have I dropped from about 2,000 connexions to 1, 000; my rate has gone down as well: #vnstat -d 02/21/201816.83 GiB | 16.59 GiB | 33.42 GiB |3.24 Mbit/s 02/22/201818.73 GiB | 18.49

Hi, I am curious if your relay is back on speed now. I experience the same thing. Since the latest update my two "fast" relay's (around 5100KB) have now dropped to half the speed and seem to go slower as time goes by. Processor is hardly used, memory is no issue, logs seem okay. My other two r

Dear All, On March 5 I changed to the newest version 3.2.10 on a middle relay I run. I went away for a few days, checked today, and found that my traffic is down, and my connexions, which were around 2,000 since December, are now about 1,000. Consensus weight is still the same (about 450) as i
