If you upgraded tor as a package on your Linux OS recently, it may have overwritten your torrc with defaults? It’s a long shot!
I was notified by Uptime Robot that relay 1 of 3 had been shut down. Unfortunately I found this out 12 hours after the fact.
guard flag is lost.

(We have 99% of guards bw, 50% of midpoint bw, and 98% of exit bw = 49% of path bw.)

This is NOT a first time for the above on this relay, more like a 7th or 8th.
CPU usage according to NYX is 90/95%. That has been the last three weeks or so.
Prior to that, average CPU usage was 30% or less.
Current BW/Burst is 3/4 MBs on torrc and nyx. Prior was BW/Burst 4/5
*Me - retired fixed income. Average billing for 3 Digital Ocean Droplets was $40. budget is good with that. Octobers billing - $87.50 I used 10 gb instead of 6Gb. Essentially a $40 overage. It's almost as if, torrc and nyx are being ignored.
