Comment (by arma):

 I've just been looking at exactly this code too. Here's the answer on
 moria1 currently:

 Jul 23 19:50:01.941 [info] dirserv_compute_performance_thresholds():
 Cutoffs: For Stable, 814436 sec uptime, 1144433 sec MTBF. For Fast: 16
 kilobytes/sec. For Guard: WFU 98.000%, time-known 691200 sec, and
 bandwidth 335 or 265 kilobytes/sec. We have enough stability data.

 So currently the median bw is 265 kilounits (which is higher than the 250
 minimum!).
