Comment (by s7r):

 The problem does affect Exits more than middle relays, and a lot of
 operators reported that changing to middle relay instead of exit helped,
 but there also have been cases when even changing the ExitPolicy to reject
 *:* didn't bring the consensus weight back.

 How does a bwauth exactly connect to an Exit and tries to measure it? What
 can happen in between this to make the bwauth think the Exit is
 misbehaving?
