That does not necessarily mean your bridge works with max. 8 kB/s. Maybe the bridge is not used much currently (most probably if it's new).
The minium BandwidthRate of 20kB/s you read is correct, I think it should be at least 200kB/s minimum. Back to our topic, that refers strictly if you cap the bandwidth to a certain value. If you did not limit the bandwidth of your bridge via torrc setting or other upstream firewall and if your internet line is capable of handling above that, it is not necessarily a problem that your bridge shows in globe with that value.

Hi, I'm running a low-volume bridge on a raspberry pi. Globe.torproject says that my fingerprint is 1BCD3EBEFE17EEB86EEDE21D5E2DB8468E2864CF . I'm keeping an eye on myself and traffic via globe.torproject and my advertised bandwidth makes wild swings: one day its 56 kB/s and the next day it's 8 kB/s. When I read that "The minimum BandwidthRate setting is 20 kilobytes per second", I am confronted with the fact that 8 is less than 20 and it doesn't seem worth it keeping my bridge up and working. Why would a bridge make such swings in advertised bandwidth? And is there any good reason to keep the bridge up and working if it sinks to 8 kB/s?
