Yes, I have experienced the same thing; my throughput is slower as well. Not only have I dropped from about 2,000 connexions to 1, 000; my rate has gone down as well:

I switched to the newest dos mitigation version 0.3.2.10 on 03/05.
I also had an internet outage of about 10 hours 03/11, and got a new ip address, so this relay is not a good example, perhaps.
My thought was to leave things for another 2 weeks, and if I still have this lower throughput, then I will up the RelayBandwidthRate and RelayBandwidthBurst settings, which has been my very rough way to attract more or fewer connexions. I try to keep it under my ISP's radar at 1 T a month.
