So I bit the bullet and started running an Exit Node (Andromeda), still early days with a few problems, namely:-
# It hasn't been given a Stable flag yet. # Some problem with dns resulting in [WARN] eventdns: All nameservers have failed - i've switched the dns to 8.8.8.8, only seen that error once since # The Consensus Weight was gaining nicely and reached over 7,000 but now has dive bombed to just 20, with that the speed dropped from ~50mbps to ~5mbps

Is this all normal or something i've overlooked?

If you are having problems with your provider's DNS servers being unable to handle the query load, you can set up a local caching DNS resolver.
(Then you can direct that resolver to whichever DNS servers you want it to query.)
