Comment (by rl1987):

 Hey, we took a look at this patch during our weekly workshop. Actually,
 the absolutely lowest value that tor allows for BandwidthRate is 75 kbytes
 today (see #13822). However, there is not much use in having OR with that
 much of bandwidth, so the manpage should recommend 250 kbytes as minimum.
 Furthermore, minimum allowed BandwidthRate is lower for bridges (50
 kbytes), but 250 kbyte recommendation should work for bridges as well.
