<br /> First of all, thanks for running a relay.<br /> <br /> Based on my experience, what usually happens is that the provider of<br /> your VPS observed during a period of time you used more than N mbps<br /> constantly and all the time, so they capped your VPS at some KB/s limit.<br /> There are performance monitoring scripts that could do this<br /> automatically. A virtual private server shares the network card of the<br /> host with the other VPSes on that host, so almost all providers do not<br /> allow you to use it all by yourself all the time for long periods. You<br /> can open a ticket upstream and they will confirm if this is the case or not.<br /> <br /> Nothing you can do about this unfortunately, most providers do this,<br /> even the ones they say they don't do it :) Only thing you can do is get<br /> a dedicated server with guaranteed bandwidth, or try to convince them to<br /> at least lift your the limitation for your VPS to 1mbps.<br /> </div>
