You can read more about this improvement here: https://blog.torproject.org/congestion-contrl-047/ The TL;DR is that users of Tor 0.4.7 will experience faster performance when using Exits or Onion Services that have upgraded to 0.4.7.Is that why the advertised bandwidth jumps well over 100 MB for some relays?
Yes, we believe that's caused by the congestion control arriving in 0.4.7. You see as well a general jump in advertised bandwidth:

On April 25, for some, it went up steeply. Some have even overtaken XOR, the fastest exit so far. Or is a bwauth on steroid?
Nope. No bwauth on steroids. :) Georg

Upgrade Tor and reboot go well together. _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
