Comment (by starlight):

 The bizarre local-region latency detailed next above results from damage
 on December 3rd to SEA-ME-WE_3 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SEA-ME-
 WE_3), https://www.itnews.com.au/news/aussie-internet-suffers-as-subsea-
 cable-cut-again-479052.

 Until the submarine Internet cable linking Australia to Singapore is
 restored to service bandwidth measurement of Australian Tor relays will be
 substantially degraded.
