(Most folks would just call that 100mbit, that is if your MB is MegaByte, hence why 11.5 MiB/s would be more accurate).
Yes, it is megabytes/sec, according to Speedtest.net. Most sysadmins would say 91.74 mbit down, 60.23 mbit up, (which is as you say basically 100 mbit) but since the Tor measures in MiB/sec I just had Speedtest convert to that instead. Same thing either way I suppose.
This blog post from today explains the effect and reasoning: https://blog.torproject.org/blog/lifecycle-of-a-new-relay
Wow, total coincidence that I asked this question on the day that the answer was posted on the blog (maybe I'm just a Jedi, who knows). That post explains a lot. I'll have to read it over several times as it's a bit technical.
Do I have to maintain an uptime of ~70 days to see fully utilization then? This relay is on a personal computer with a static IP, so it isn't on a dedicated server or anything like that. Usually my uptime is around several weeks though. I'll be on this same IP for months though.
Because otherwise introducing a large set of fast relays and thus hurt anonymity.

Greets, Jeroen
That makes sense. I didn't think of that, good one. Thanks Jeroen for pointing me in the right direction there, much appreciated.
Live long and prosper, Jesse V.
