Comment (by cypherpunks):

 I wanted to know what the ratio between hibernating relays where
 {{{interval_wakeup_time = interval_start_time;}}} (identified by MM:SS =
 00:00) and relays where
 the start_time is not wakeup_time.

 For 2015-08-04 it is:
 43 (wakeup_time != start_time) vs 71 (wakeup_time=start_time)
