Hello,
so my relay regulary gets overloaded, for what I can only assume is an
hardware issue, (which I can't upgrade rn) since I already applied the
tor anti ddos scripts. It seems to be able to recover, however with a
lower Consensus Weight. I also (stupidly) tried to have a cron restarting
my tor daemon daily which also resulted in the latter. So I wonder, if
there is any way to have a relay run more stable and I suppose with a
somewhat higher consensus weight (I can only asssume making some further
changes in advertising bandwidth etc.
My second question(s) is/are concerning the tor swag (I hope that's
allowed to ask here). Firstly, what is the actual Speed requirement? In
the tor ecosystem, every unit is MBs, and only on the swag site its KBs.
But if my calculations are correct, 500KBs = 500000Bs = 0.5MBs which
doesn't really make sence, imo(but I probably misscalculated somewhere).
Secondly, does running mean it's uptime (aka Last Restarted) or the Time
it was first seen?
Sorry for the wall of text for not much information, and thanks a lot in
advance for your replies!
Best,
