We have no reason to believe the Tor network is under attack.  The
simplest explanation is that all of the efforts to promote Tor in Iran
are resulting in a burst of new relays.

In the past, we'd consistently see bursts of new relays after major
press articles; such as stories on Slashdot.

The full directory archives will soon be available for all to do your
own analysis of the recent growth in the Tor network.
