------------------------------+--------------------------------
 Twice in the last few months, I have explained to relay operators that
 RelayBandwidthRate/Burst includes directory fetches from the relay by
 clients. But they do not include directory fetches by the relay (from
 authorities or other relays), because that is considered "client"
 activity.

 We should clarify in the man page, because it clearly causes some
 confusion.
