[tor-talk] [Advanced configuration troubleshooting] Exit node slowed way down

1) I did contact the host.  They ran speed tests against a number of 
sources (basically the same thing I did, really), and noted that it had 
a lot of available b/w.  Also, my server is running at the same DC as 
gorz.torservers.net [109.163.233.205 
<http://torstatus.all.de/whois.php?ip=109.163.233.205>] , which looks to 
be pushing about the same 20MB/s that mine did pre-slowdown, so I'm 
confident this is a provider issue.  I'm pretty sure voxility "shares" 
lines, so if it were a saturation problem, I imagine gorz would have 
slowed down, too.

2) The lack of a stable flag is due to reboots and restarts trying to 
fix this issue.

3) I'm not sure where to view the advertised bandwidth graph, but what 
is this stat generated from?  I just double-checked the torrc for the 
main instance and it's 80MB+.  Updated to:

RelayBandwidthRate 100 MB  # Throttle traffic to 100KB/s (800Kbps)
RelayBandwidthBurst 125 MB # But allow bursts up to 200KB/s (1600Kbps)


Thanks for the responses, guys.
