Best with limited bandwidth - relay or bridge?

[Damian Johnson]

Exit relays are definitely the most useful (thanks for running one!).
However, it's preferable to have a fast relay for part of the month rather
than a slow relay always available so I'd suggest using AccountingMax rather
than RelayBandwidthRate/Burst to stay below your provider's cap. Cheers!
