Comment:

 Hi, thanks for reporting this issue.
 I agree it can be frustrating - I have also run relays in Australia.

 This is a known issue with the current bandwidth authority measurement
 system:
 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/BandwidthAuthorityMeasurements

 We are working on fixing it: we currently have bandwidth servers in Chile
 and Hong Kong, and we have experimented with using a CDN as a bandwidth
 server.

 I'll use this ticket as a master ticket for the different things we can do
 to fix this issue, because it explains it well.
