Comment:
On 2018-03-05 (see [[doc/MetricsTimeline]]): "Steady drop in the number of
relay users in Germany, from 1.5M to 650k. (Drop coincides with the
release of tor 0.3.2.10, 0.3.1.10, and 0.2.9.15, which offer better
resistance against DoS attacks)"
That these clients were part of the DoS attack, and dropped off when
mitigations for the attack were shipped, is the best we currently have for
explanation.
If anyone has more to add, or thinks there is a way we can investigate
this further, please reopen the ticket.
