[tor-relays] I need a new VPS provider

[torrelay.9puwh at passinbox.com]

Hi Landon,

I can strongly recommend BuyVM.net as a good alternative. They allow all kinds of Tor nodes and have good performance + exceptional support. I've been using them for years with no issues.

However, in the past six months, my bandwidth usage has been declining a lot. It seems like they might be throttling my server. I was getting over 2000 connected clients and now I'm down to less than 600. "iftop" shows me about 30 to 60 Mbps bandwidth usage during any time of the day. Take a look...
