New description:

 Tor reads bandwidth files when it's voting, around 50 minutes past every
 hour, and 20 minutes past hours when the consensus has failed.

 We should recommend that authority operators generate and transfer
 bandwidth files between 5-15 or 35-45 minutes past the hour. The best
 place for this might be in dir-spec or the bandwidth file spec.

Comment (by teor):

 It doesn't matter if the generator is remote or local, it still needs to
 be scheduled correctly.
