I do see 3 viable ways, just run the relay from 18 to 8 a clock and stop
it (via cron?) from 8 to 18.
Or create 2 different tor configurations one limiting the bandwith to
250 kb/s and the other one to 10000 kb/s and reload tor with the
according configuration (via cron)
last but not least you could setup some fancy traffic shaping like in
https://svn.torproject.org/svn/tor/tags/tor-0_2_0_20_rc/contrib/linux-tor-prio.sh
where you limit the bandwith with tc and not tor itself.
