Hello Tor-Relays members, 

I'm new to running a relay. (I've read the last 2 months archives of this 
list.) 
Started about a week ago, and have run 4 versions. Now on 0.2.4.17-rc. 
Running on a low power CPU, so I'm keeping a fairly close watch on it, trying 
to figure out what 'normal' behavior/footprint is, which is difficult since as 
I understand the network is in 'normal' condition. 



Anyway, regarding failing circuits, I don't know if this is related, but it is 
still an anomaly: (timestamps are CET)

Sep 07 17:51:28.000 [notice] Tor 0.2.4.17-rc (git-00fb525b23cf070f) opening log 
file.
Sep 07 17:58:48.000 [notice] Circuit handshake stats since last time: 
59959/60002 TAP, 63/63 NTor.

For all of those entries, where it says X/Y TAP, X is between 99% and 100% of 
Y. Except for 15:59 (only 48%) and 16:59 (89%). During that same period, I also 
have a dramatic spike in CPU usage. After that it goes back to almost 100%.
