I stand corrected.

I observed my relays (a few years ago) to often run into the bandwidth limit,
aka 'flatlining', and this having latency. I then started to set lower
advertised bandwidth, and this went away. Problem here is that these are
short-term event in relation to the bandwidth probes, so the probing
can't really control this.

What kind of latencies are we talking about here? And how much
latency makes up for what bandwidth?
