Hi IPonU, Thanks for running a relay.

As I understand it, running one larger relay may be better. Traffic
correlation attacks by a global persistent adversary might have a harder
time due to the fact that more circuits are using one IP, rather than less
circuits spread across multiple IPs. In no way is this a cure-all, but it
might help.

Cheers
