This happens to my relay as well. There are various posts on this list
about it. I've stopped tuning the maxadvertised bandwitdth and now I
just ride it out.

Iirc it's normally accompanied with a large spike in incoming
connections and some dropped onionskins.

There are some links to Toralfs scripts in previous posts which include
some firewall tooling which might help. I've yet to try it out.

Thanks.
