There is something really strange going on indeed. What I noticed is an increase of circuits and my device running out of memory until it stopped working so I had to reboot it on 31. Jan. Then again the memory usage increased until it leveled out at a rather unusual, high usage. The actual bandwidth usage is not unusual though (always around 2Mbps on my relay).
Attached a screenshot of my memory usage the last few days (I hope attachments do work here; it's in fact Tor using that memory as could be checked with ps and htop).
