Dear Keifer, I run a small relay at home as well. (I've never had more than 4,000/4,500 connections, and my home router seems to have had no problem.) However, guessing from the tor docs on my ISP that I should keep my monthly throughput to 1TB or so, I put some daily bandwidth limits on it. Before the dos mitigation came out a couple of months ago, I would hit the limits every other day or so, and my relay would shut down until midnight. So I never had a stable flag for months, and still had plenty of traffic.
