it looks like your relay has a measured by authority 'bastet' of
355. That is not a big value. The other authorities measured this:

278;
355;
367;
803;

So it looks like the speed was pretty much the same for the measurements
performed on your relay by different servers on different networks. If
you say you are sure there is nothing automated (at either OS level,
hypervisor level, local router/network level or something upstream) that
could throttle this in case of continuous high usage
Your AS shows up as BellSouth.net, which redirects to AT&T.
Have you asked them if they're throttling you?

(Or do you work for BellSouth?)

there's not much
you can do other than waiting some time to see the next speed measurements.
You can check the warning and notice level Tor logs to see the amount
of traffic Tor thinks it is handling.

You can also tap or mouse over the bandwidth in Atlas, and it will show
you what's limiting your relay - in this case, it appears to be the consensus
weight. (The observed maximum bandwidth is 2.44 MBps, and the rate and
burst are 5 and 10 MBps.)

Unfortunately, sometimes relays get stuck in a low measurement category.
We're working on a test environment, so we can start fixing issues like this.

In the meantime, you can try the following things:
* restart the relay
* change the IP address
* delete all the relay keys and start again

You might want to wait a week or so after trying each step.
Please let us know if one of these things works, it will help us diagnose
the issue.


I've already restarted the relay (been about 5-6 days).  It was doing this before the restart although it continues to decline. I'll delete the whole VPS and create a new one. LOL...guess I'll be starting new on my t-shirt authorization (but that is another thread...).
