Yep.
After over a week, I was getting very low traffic, so rolled back to the stable version vidalia-relay-bundle-0.2.3.25-0.2.21-2.exe to compare, trying to see if would be more useful.
After changing, I no longer see any hourly entries as I did with the beta/RC version. I tried unsuccessfully to find a change log that would indicate this might have been one thing changed.
Can anyone confirm this was a feature of the beta/RC version since the last stable version? or might I have missed some setting somewhere to enable hourly connection stat logging?
It is new in 0.2.4.17-rc:
- Track how many "TAP" and "NTor" circuit handshake requests we get, and how many we complete, and log it every hour to help relay operators follow trends in network load. Addresses ticket 9658.
