 Well, they're in Australia, so latency is high, and measured bandwidth is
 low. But I'm not sure that would cause so many failures. Maybe something
 with OpenBSD?

 My relay at the same provider has AccountingMax set, and has disabled its
 DirPort, so it's much harder to interrogate. It's on FreeBSD, but on
 0.2.8.7 (still waiting for a package update), and up to date with its
 consensuses.
