Comment:

 Ok this all has nothing to do with setting a DirPort or not or how much
 bandwidth you're pushing (occasionally it pays off to read code before
 speculating). Every relay since 0.2.2.15 publishes dirreq-write-history
 and dirreq-read-history, whether they have a dirport configured or not.
 See rep_hist_get_bandwidth_lines() in rephist.c for details. This is going
 to be a common case. Do we still want to fix it? :-)
