[tor-relays] Your computer is too slow to handle this many circuit creation requests

[teamcat at genocide.fun]

Hello,

After setting up a relay, I noticed that my log file was full of "Your 
computer is too slow to handle this many circuit creation requests" 
messages. This seems odd to me, as htop reports that my CPU and memory 
usage is nowhere near full.

I'm running on two cores and 8 GB of RAM, and it's averaging about 40% 
usage on both cores and 2 GB of RAM usage.

I've used the tor-ddos iptables rules that were suggested in a previous 
message thread, but it doesn't seem to have done anything to address the 
problem. (https://github.com/Enkidu-6/tor-ddos). I've also configured 
/etc/sysctl.conf to support a traffic flow as outlined in the github 
repo.

Here is the link to the metrics page for my relay. 
https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#details/74181AB4D1A7D403ED9F190FAC9292C6FA3ACA36

Is this something that I should be concerned about, and work to 
mitigate? I am able to migrate my relay to much more powerful hardware, 
but obviously that would incur additional cost, so if there is some way 
to fully utilize my existing hardware I would prefer that.

Regards,

Evan
