Thank you for letting me know about that. I am now on 0.4.1.6.

Unfortunately I don't think there is any, the main limitation being my
server's bandwidth itself. However, I noticed that the observed
bandwidth on Tor metrics is lower than what I allocated in the torrc,
so I will try increasing it a little.

My relay is one of the few running OpenBSD, a setting which is not
listed on this wiki page. Fortunately, the Tor BSD Diversity Project
has written some nice doc: https://torbsd.github.io/obsd-relays.html.
Maybe it should be integrated into the wiki.
Thanks again for the good work.
