[tor-relays] Too little traffic on my #2 non-exit relay

Hey there,

I'm currently running two tor (non-exit) relays on one host machine.
"000000000000myTOR1" and "000000000000myTOR2".
Now my problem is that tor relay #2 generates almost no traffic.

https://atlas.torproject.org/#search/000000000000myTOR

Log Relay #1:
Circuit handshake stats since last time: 1566234/14743525 TAP, 
10428/10433 NTor.
Heartbeat: Tor's uptime is 7 days 6:00 hours, with 56008 circuits open. 
I've sent 2167.46 GB and received 1567.97 GB.

Log Relay #2:
Circuit handshake stats since last time: 63/63 TAP, 1/1 NTor.
Heartbeat: Tor's uptime is 7 days 6:00 hours, with 4 circuits open. I've 
sent 1.58 GB and received 844.66 MB.

Both have the same binary and configuration (except incoming/outgoing 
IPv4). I've also tried to switch from
"fully self compiled debian, with custom kernel, and own tor binary" to 
"Out of the Box Ubuntu LTS, with torproject tor package"
.. without any improvement. Both relays works as expected.

OT: for my opinion avg 150 mbit/s (99% done by node #1) is too less for 
an Ivy-Bridge Based Xeon Quad Core (/w HT) on an unshared gigabit line.
Apart from the fact that multithread support is really missing.

Can anyone give me a hint, or am i just too stupid? Thanks ;)
