<div>Hello,
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I have been running a middle relay for one year in a few days.</p>
<p>I would expect the relay to push more traffic than it does.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p><a href="https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/875F74A3DC14737BECA06F8B500022154D1A29D1">https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/875F74A3DC14737BECA06F8B500022154D1A29D1</a><br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>What is the reason for it not handling more traffic?</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>The Internet connection is 250 Mbit/s downstream and 100 Mbit/s upstream.</p>
<p>There is nothing else using this connection.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>The "server" is a Banana Pro:</p>
<p><a title="Ctrl+Click or tap to follow the link" href="http://www.lemaker.org/product-bananapro-specification.html">http://www.lemaker.org/product-bananapro-specification.html</a></p>
<p>The Banana is running Bananian Linux:</p>
<p><a href="https://www.bananian.org/">https://www.bananian.org/</a><br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I know that the Banana Pro is not that powerful, but still I think that it is able to handle more traffic than it seems to do.</p>
<p>According to top the CPU hovers around 10-20% most of the time.</p>
<p>I have also been running nload and tload in order to see the load over a longer time.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Does anyone have an idea of why I'm not seeing more traffic?</p>
<p>Could it be that it is due to the quite slow hardware, even though I know that it is able to push more traffic?</p>
<p>What kind of relay speeds can you expect from a Raspberry Pi for example?</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
