[tor-relays] "Relay unresponsive (last heartbeat:...)" every hour or so?

[Deep Lodokus]

As a follow-up on this issue: I can't easily hook up my Raspberry Pi with a
network cable, but I've had this command running for the past few days:
    $ while :; do ping -c 3 www.google.com &> /dev/null; if [ $? != 0 ];
then date; fi; done

There's been occasional output that doesn't correspond to the tor-arm's
"Relay unresponsive" complaints. I'll contact the tor-arm people!

Thanks.
