[tor-relays] Directory Authority servers still using excessive bandwidth

[Neel Chauhan]

Hi tor-relays@,

I have noticed that despite fixing bugs in the past, the directory 
authority relays are still using excessively high amounts of bandwidth, 
when looking at Relay Search:

Examples:

And many more.

I'm asking since I'm having an issue with low consensus weights on a 
symmetrical "Gigabit" pipe, and I am suspecting the overloaded authority 
servers are a factor. Are they?

It could also be my current ISP's (Wave Broadband) crap peering, but 
would I really want to use Comcast?
