[tor-relays] Well, that escalated quickly

Hello all.

I started an exit relay on Saturday. Last night I took a look at the log and I saw something like 30 active circuits at the heartbeat and the relay had passed a few tens of megabytes. I just logged in and saw 8,000 active circuits at the heartbeat and > 2 GB passed. Is it normal for an exit relay to suddenly ramp up like that? Just curious.
