Comment (by teor):

 I think the changes had a clear effect on my relays, that varied by their
 proximity to the new clients at OVH. But it could have been a coincidence.

 I've tried tuning a lot of things since then, here's my update:

 My next step is to DROP all traffic from these IP addresses so I can get
 decent data for our privacy preserving stats research. That means I won't
 be able to do comparisons.
