I noticed when sshing to my relay box that it is responding much slower than normal - taking a minute or two to respond to a single keypress. I ran netstat -t and saw lots of bytes in the outqueue to various other relays. I telnetted to port 9051 and got the following bandwidth log:

My throughput limit is 64K, which has not previously been a problem. I've sometimes seen steady throughput close to 64K; more often it's sporadic with an average around 5K. Any idea what's going on?
I checked Blutmagie; I've lost the fast flag, but have not been selected as guard or any other new flag. I thought it might have something to do with the bitcoin crash that's going on, but netstat -t on the bitcoin box doesn't show any similar attempt to push more data than the line can handle. If I were selected as the middleman in one user's file upload, I'd see a steady stream of traffic, not this spikiness.
