So, Now I've taken some steps to adjust the state of the relay, and try to balance this. To reiterate a point previously, before I start adding more tor daemons or servers to this, I want to know how to scale and optimise what is already there. - Set up unbound in cache mode rather than use our

Hi, I wanted to highlight the following parts of my reply: The Tor network is quite happy to allocate around 47 MByte/s (yes, 376 MBit/s) to your relay based on its bandwidth measurements, but it won't do that until your relay shows it is actually capable of sustaining that traffic over a 10-s
