[tor-relays] bandwidth authority algorithm is cracked

[starlight.2014q1@xxxxxxxxxxx]

The bandwidth authorities assign all kinds of
wildly incorrect capacities to the Tor node
here.

The Tor relay software has been up for 45 days
and has not been down for more than five minutes
for three or four months.

Occasional outages from the ISP mucking
with their network, but nothing more than
ten or fifteen minutes in any week.

The local node bandwidth calculation is
consistently 490-495 Kbytes/sec.  Very
stable.  Very consistent.

The Tor bandwidth authorities assign
values anywhere from 100 Kbytes/sec to
almost 700 Kbytes/sec in an oscillating
pattern with a period of about one week.

Something is seriously wrong with that.
