The default value for AuthDirFastGuarantee is still 100 KB.
I don't know if a majority of authority operators have set it higher.

The other way a relay gets Fast is if it is in the fastest 7/8ths of the routers.

6/9 authorities use measured bandwidth, rather than reported bandwidth.
So your relay won't get Fast unless it is measured by the bandwidth authorities,
faster than 100 KB.
