How do you know if it's a DDOS attack rather than normal traffic?

I don't have much time right at the moment (sorry), and I don't outright
reject your observations. Maybe you are interested in our exit relay
statistics (cpu/memory/etc). We have US exits as well (axigy1/axigy2).
If there was something out of the ordinary happening to these servers, I
am sure the ISP would have told me (we are in daily contact via Instant
Messenger).
