Hello,
is there a way to shut down Tor relays for a short time without losing
consensus weight or bandwidth?

Last week I installed a newer Tor version and added more RAM and now my
relays lost a third of their bandwidth. Last time I've upgraded the
hardware was in January and the relays didn't fully recover from the downtime
in the last two months. I'd gladly provide 200Mb/s+ of relay bandwidth if I
could, but Tor won't let me.
