I'm new to running a Tor relay and started one about a month ago. I've got 50 Mbps dedicated to it and at first it climbed in traffic pretty steadily until it got to around 25-30 Mbps being used. Since then, it has declined steadily and is down to about 350 KBps now (yes, I'm keeping the units straight).
My node is a single core VPS running 3.2GHz and with 1GB RAM. Currently, top shows tor as using about 15% of the memory. When it was churning out at the maximum rate it got to, the CPU was pretty hammered. I was considering allocating another core, but there is no need anymore as it is hovering around 7% usage.
The server is running on Ubuntu 16.04.3 and I'm running 0.3.1.7 tor.
Am I doing something wrong to result in the decrease in traffic? Any advice is appreciated.
It is always good to include an atlas URL or fingerprint / IP to your relay when asking for help about a specific relay

Thanks for the advice. For this particular one, the fingerprint is 2721 B600 67A1 EF1D E792 6BAA DDCA D490 AB5C AE36
