maatuska's bwscanner down since 2017-04-14 -> significant drop in relay traffic
Hi Tom! since maatuska's bwscanner is down [1] I see a significant drop of traffic on many of my relays, and I believe this is related. Do you have any update to [2] on when maatuska will report bwscan results again? thanks, a concerned relayoperator [1] https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-consensus-health/2017-April/00783... https://consensus-health.torproject.org/graphs.html#bwauthgraphs [2] https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-consensus-health/2017-April/00784...

I am also seeing a strange sudden drop in usage: https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/BCEDF6C193AA687AE471B8A22EBF6BC57C2D28... What's going on? -- Ian Goldberg Professor and University Research Chair Cheriton School of Computer Science University of Waterloo

I can confirm that maatuska's bwauth has been down since last weekend and that we've been unable to get the box back up. We're seeing if we can stand up a new one. No ETA. Sorry for the minimal communication on it, but haven't had a more detailed update. To determine if the loss of maatuska's bwauth has been the particular thing affecting a particular relay is labor intensive at this time: you'd need to see if maatuska had been on the high-side-of-median for your relay measured value resulting in a lower assignment when it went away. You could do this through historical consensus-health documents (use the arrow on the detailed page next to your relay) or through vote+consensus comparisons. Not user friendly though. We are working on better bwauth analysis tools in #21992, #21993, #21994, and #21882 - but those are bwauths-as-a-whole, not individual relay analysis. -tom
