Hi Tobias

I understand your post is about specific larger exit entities.
Unfortunately I do not know anything to that. Please let me 2-cent to
some of your points.

May-be you check nusenu's page [1] (Thanks n)

[2] shows for the extra info [3]:
write-history 2018-09-07 16:49:44 (86400 s)

Which _is_ the bandwidth, but seems not to be displayed on metrics page,
though.

I checked some of my guard relays. No connections to:
37.218.246.0/24 193.235.207.0/24 192.36.61.0/24 192.36.41.0/24
192.36.27.0/24 185.220.102.0/24
But active inbound connections to:
185.220.101.0/24 (Tor between 0.3.2.10 and 0.3.3.9)

Thank you for tracing this.
