[tor-relays] does the Tor network scale well ?

Given the numbers of https://torstatus.blutmagie.de/index.php there are about 40 Tor exits which covers 1/3 of the whole bandwidth of all exit relays.
I do wonder if under-weighting the big relays in favour of many smaller relays would make it harder for an adversary to de-anonymize the traffic ?
