 Hello, long-time Tor exit node operator here.  My apartment complex has
 free internet -- 10 ping (!) 30Mbps down / 20 Mbps up.  A fiber connection
 is fed out to managed switches on the property.

 My Windows 7 Desktop has run a Tor exit node flawlessly for a year.

 On another internet connection in my apartment, I wanted to start up
 another Tor server.  For this, I reloaded the OS on a windows XP machine,
 updated it, an installed Tor.  Tor runs, but gives this error message
 every 3-15 minutes, dozens if not hundreds of times a day:

 ''"We stalled too much while trying to write X bytes to address
 [scrubbed].  If this happens frequently, either something is wrong with
 your network connection, or with theirs." ''

 The Tor server should be transmitting several TB a month, but it's doing
 about 50MB a DAY!

 The network connection works great, the Tor install is new, and the
 computer is fresh.  How can we fix this?
