Another data point: according to my mrtg graphs (ie. traffic rates) a
similar thing may have happened to me yesterday between 12:30 and 12:45
pm EST. Downstream suddenly saturated for what looks like 10-15
minutes when there was nobody using the network.
Unfortunately I don't have logging turned on at my firewall so I can't
be sure it was a dos; I have only been running tor for a few months but
that hasn't happened before.
