Did my somewhat-weekly checkin on my bridge and was surprised to see the stats had plummeted.
Logged into the server and noticed Tor wasn’t using its usual resources so restarted it, which happened cleanly. I haven’t modified my torrc since September 23rd, 2023.

Any thoughts on what might have happened or suggestions for a better torrc? Kills me to see my Advertised Bandwidth in the KiB/s from the 100s of MiB/s it once was.
