Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Replying to [ticket:11053 mcwerewolf]:
 > I've installed a tor relay on a KVM system (windows server 2012) that
 has a very fast connection to the internet (1Gbps), and despite me setting
 royal bandwidth limits for the relay to use, it advertises as 20 kb/s (the
 minimum) and is therefore not using any of the available bandwidth.
 >
 > I assume it's caused by the bandwidth self-check not getting sane
 results.

 > A note on the setup: Although the KVM has a virtual NIC by name (as an
 Intel Pro/1000 MT), the NIC itself never returns any throughput data; the
 overall network measurement (network layer measurement) in resource
 monitor works fine, however. I gather this is a KVM oddity, but there's no
 way to bypass this self-check in tor either in case of problems. I assume
 it would set to 20KB/s if it gets "0" as a result.
 Please post your torrc, especially (but not limited to) the
 RelayBandwidthRate and RelayBandwidthBurst lines.
