Comment (by arma):

 A) Thanks for running a relay!

 B) Did you tell us a fingerprint for your relay, so we can look into it
 more? A link to the relay's page on atlas would work fine too.

 C) Hm. 20% packet loss might mean that your Tor relay is trying to use
 more bandwidth than your network can handle. Do you know how much
 bandwidth you actually have? (Upload is probably the limiting factor.) You
 should set RelayBandwidthRate to that amount, and RelayBandwidthBurst to
 not much more than it.

 D) As for why you're seeing this increased load in recent weeks, see the
 discussions on the tor-relays list, e.g.

 relays/2017-December/014002.html
