Hello, on friday my realay's Consensus Weight felt down suddenly to 20 and the its bandwidth is not used anymore (https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/94212674A2C6AEBF77354D959D464E49BC8781...). I don't understand why, as nothing is changed in its configuration. And, I don't know if it's related, but I noticed that the tor network has slow down in the last days and some times it's very difficult to use it.

Hi Marco, I'm currently experiencing the same problem. I was averaging 2-4MB/s, but since Friday my consensus weight dropped to 20. It's currently averaging ~90-150+ connections, ~80% inbound, 15% exit, 5% outbound. Arm reports my average speed as 204Kb/s, with the occasional jump 2-4MB/s, but is reporting the measured bandwidth at 160b/s. I also have not made any changes, other than rebooting the server over the weekend to see if that would help, which it didn't. (Full disclosure, after noticing the drop, I installed arm, and had to edit torrc to include "DisableDebuggerAttachment 0", so I did make a change... but again, it was after the drop.) https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/AA5A35A63D38727C0CA6939691E14E675E7C41... Is this a bwauth issue? Kind regards, Matt Speak Freely

Hello, currently there is no solution bar deleting your ID.

Hello Network Operations Center, Darn. Done. Yet another fingerprint bites the dust... Matt Speak Freely

Most dearest Network Operations Center, As the problem has yet to go away, I decided to bring back from the dead this thread. The problem still persists, my consensus weight never leaves 20. - I have deleted the ID - I have changed the IP address - I had the relay offline for... 2 weeks? My consistent average speed is ~100-200kb/s, though the server is quite capable of handling 2-4MB/s. Doing speed tests I can sustain 6-8MB/s. So, I decided to get another VPS account and setup a new relay. Exact same issue is present. Affected VPS #1 https://atlas.thecthulhu.com/#details/28683E52268BDCF8B292DD9037131C315DB44A... Affected VPS #2 https://atlas.thecthulhu.com/#details/D60B02A13F5D9CAFD6EC27A5332C5FEF5B7691... Atlas has always looked drunk while displaying stats for VPS #2, as the pretty graphs never seem to display anything for the 3 days, or 1 week IO graph. My two non-exit relays work great. My two exit relays suck the big one. I'd appreciate some more advice. And no, I haven't set the MyFamily parameters for various reasons. If and when this issue gets fixed, I'll add them.

Hi, interesting that deleting the ID does not work. I haven't considered doing it myself yet, but I too have disabled my exit for several days to see if that would kickstart it again: https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/3D7E274A87D9A89AF064C13D1EE4CA1F184F26... sadly without success. I really wish I were able to help, alas I am in the same boat as you. As a matter of fact I have just now edited my config to disable its exit properties. Let's see if it can generate some consensus weight again as a regular relay. Kind regards, Schokomilch NOC On 23.04.2015 03:59 PM, Speak Freely wrote:

Hi NOC, I just set one of the relays to be a non-exit, to see if that helps. I guess the next step will be to completely start new with a fresh VPS install... But I doubt that will work as the second VPS I got from the same provider *never* left a consensus of 20. I just did some more speed tests 100M file @ 10.3M/s for 10 seconds for VPS #1 100M file @ 10.7M/s for 10 seconds for VPS #2 1000M file @ 10.4M/s for 99 seconds for VPS #1 1000M file @ 10.5M/s for 98 seconds for VPS #2 These are both on unmetered accounts, so to say it's a piss off that this isn't working well might be a bit of an understatement.

Alright, I'm about to lose my mind. My consensus weight on atlas already jumped from 20 to 207 on the relay I changed from an exit to middle. So... Super-duper. Matt Speak Freely

Congrats, I'm still running on 20 :') On 23.04.2015 08:29 PM, Speak Freely wrote:

my relay changed from 20 to 2080 overnight. I wonder if it will change any more. On 23.04.2015 08:29 PM, Speak Freely wrote:

Mine is now at 457, so I suspect it will continue to climb as the network learns more. I wonder... if the bwauths use a different mechanism to test exit nodes than middle nodes... Matt Speak Freely
