[tor-relays] Question about relay speed + quick question about IPV6

[Sheesh]

Alright, thank you!

I'm just wondering why I have only a few connections (14 inbound, 1
outbound) right now. But I guess that's because the relay lost its
stable and fast flag due to server move and several restarts and now
needs some time to reestablish?
