Comment(by hsn):
You need to know GB/day from relay, there is not much day to day variance.
This is for load balancing enough. Bit problematic can be relays with not
fixed bw limit, their GB/day depends on weight assigned way more then
relays with fixed bw limit.
You need to watch for trends in young relays < 1month. They continually
increasing their traffic, increase rate seems to be constant.
If you plan to have just 2 guards and long cycle time, then its important
to prefer guards with spare bandwidth.
