<div dir="ltr">Totally agree with your analysis on this- my concern is that if that were true I'd see Nifty's 15 percent drop like a rock too... and drop from 7-8gbit/sec to 2-3gb/sec is weird.</div>

<div dir="ltr">consensus means what fraction of traffic will pass over your nodes, statistically speaking.
<div>Hence a steady drop of consensus value, with no infra changes on your end, could also be explained by a stead rise of total bandwidth available: since your part is fixed and total grows, your fraction reduces.</div>

Hello,<br>
<br>
I have been watching the consensus weight and bandwidth of all of my 50 exit nodes drop consistently over the past few months. I have not made any hardware changes in my data center and actual customers have not complained about any performance issues.<br>
<br>
Operating systems and Tor version are up to date. I'm dedicating a significant portion of bandwidth to these nodes - 10gbit/sec.<br>
<br>
Am I having issues with the bandwidth authorities?<br>
<br>
I'm growing frustrated with my performance to resources ratio, I should be doing far better than this.<br>
<br>
Please throw ideas at me - open to any ideas.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
