Which relay fingerprint(s)?
Did you upgrade your Tor version?

Please don't post byte-level traffic statistics, it might make some
users less safe.

(We are working on making all statistics contain enough noise to hide
typical user activity.)

Is your relay a directory mirror or HSDir?
Is your relay an exit?

Any relay that turns cells into data connections can show a difference
between inbound and outbound traffic if the cells are partly empty.
