I'm showing that tor is currently using 12 - 14 Mbps on my relay, however, the status page for my relay ( http://torstatus.blutmagie.de/router_detail.php?FP=192bdf2831c1b007a08dc3c1d... ) does not reflect this speed. Is there a reason for this? Nick

Blutmagie is using an old version of the tor status software (3.6 something). Try instead torstatus.all.de which uses the actual tor status v4. Here is the url for your relay and the numbers are matching with yours: http://torstatus.all.de/router_detail.php?FP=192bdf2831c1b007a08dc3c1d7e36be... You can check the tor status version number at the bottom of the page btw. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Yours sincerely Sebastian Urbach -------------------------------------------------------- Religion is something left over from the infancy of our intelligence, it will fade away as we adopt reason and science as our guidelines. -------------------------------------------------------- Bertrand Arthur William Russell (1872-1970), British philosopher, logician, mathematician, historian, and social critic.

I've got little faith in either status page. I really don't know where those numbers come from. For example, my relay named "Alexander". Blutmagie says it has an observed bandwidth of 7KB/sec, while torstatus.all.de says it is 70KB (yes, seven vs. seventy). Both of those values sound wrong to me. But torstatus.all.de is closer to what I think is the truth. Then I look at the graphics for this relay, and again I do not believe it. The Write History values are 15 to 20 times greater than the Read History?! I won't trust these status pages until they show numbers that I (or they) can explain. https://torstatus.all.de/router_detail.php?FP=8a029c96b97a30f153eb1c951ef23d...

I've got a good internal rant going now, so I'll continue to vent. Here's another one, relay Gnome5: https://torstatus.all.de/router_detail.php?FP=66ff3aa5cb31e99f684196073cd444... This page states an observed bandwidth of roughly 3 megabytes. (My own monitor says 5.5 MB/sec on this box, running only a Tor exit node + a caching DNS server.) What is that number, some sort of historical average? Averaged over what period? It sure isn't the average of the numbers shown in the graphics, which again are wildly unbalanced between reads and writes. As I may have already mentioned: I do not trust these status pages at all. Oh, and torstatus.all.de recommends accessing their page via HTTPS, but when you do TBB complaints about their self-signed security certificate and prompts you to add a security exception to the browser. Sheesh!

Hi Mike, Well, seems like you turned on the experimental setting again, as i can see in the consensus file, without a short info as i requested. Thanks for that, always nice to be ignored. Anyway, traffic on my relay dropped dramatically and the network transmission time is already increasing in the same way. Something still screws up. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Yours sincerely Sebastian Urbach -------------------------------------------------------- Religion is something left over from the infancy of our intelligence, it will fade away as we adopt reason and science as our guidelines. -------------------------------------------------------- Bertrand Arthur William Russell (1872-1970), British philosopher, logician, mathematician, historian, and social critic.

FWIW some of our relays saw a dramatic drop (60-70Mbps down to 4-5Mbps) in two steps, first one at around 0815 UTC and second one at around 0900 UTC today. It appears that the consensus-reported bandwidth for those relays did drop in the 0700 and 0800 consensuses, though not by near that ratio (less than 50% drop overall). Other relays have not seen the dramatic drop; I'm not yet sure what the difference between them is though.

Hey all, It looks like this particular drop I'm seeing may be unrelated to any bandwidth experiments, but instead a provider problem, sorry for the noise.

Hi, The version number is also sometimes listed in the header, depends on the mirror website design or so ;-) -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Yours sincerely Sebastian Urbach -------------------------------------------------------- Religion is something left over from the infancy of our intelligence, it will fade away as we adopt reason and science as our guidelines. -------------------------------------------------------- Bertrand Arthur William Russell (1872-1970), British philosopher, logician, mathematician, historian, and social critic.
