I am having a lot of trouble figuring out why my relay keeps showing as overloaded on the search page. I believe I have more than enough memory and cpu power to not be overloaded on hardware. My server internet connection is 10GB up/down unmetered.
I cannot for the life of me figure out why the relay search page continuously tells me i am overloaded.
Can someone assist me in troubleshooting this?
Thank you. Pertinent hardware information is pasted below:

I can confirm that when loadbalancing Tor relay nodes that the whole is only as good as the weakest link; thus, it's important to have identical Tor relay nodes to evenly distribute circuits and maintain consensus.

However, it seems this is a moot point, after reading your summary of the reporting process.

I do see spikes alternate through various nodes throughout the day. It would be nice to find an upstream timeout value to better manage those spikes.
