I'm currently seeing more than a doubling of connections (from a mean of c. 2000 established connections to just over 5000) on my relay at 0xbaddad. The log is full of the (expected) messages: "Your computer is too slow to handle this many circuit creation requests!" I guess this is related to the massive jump in connected clients in the past few days and I assume that everyone else is seeing something similar.

My speculation is that someone read about the childporn site that got busted, figured the tor network is evil and bought a botnet to try to Ddos it.

Noisetor is seeing increased CPU load and "too slow to handle this many circuit" messages as well, without a corresponding increase in throughput. -andy
