Another cycle of that experiment started a couple of hours ago.[1] We hope to have finally figured out all the bugs in our setup so that we don't see several peaks during our measurement period anymore.[2] Georg [1] https://status.torproject.org/experiments/2021-09-23-relay-speed-test/ [2] See: https://metrics.torproject.org/bandwidth.html?start=2021-05-01&end=2021-09-23 for how the two measurements look like we did this year.
