# How many unique people are running relays
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
First let's analyze how many Relays ware on the network currently:
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
cat tor.json | jq -c .[] | wc -l
|
||
|
|
5828
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Next, how many of these relays provide contact information:
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
cat tor.json | jq -c .[].contact | grep -v ^null | wc -l
|
||
|
|
4459
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Let's now analyze the frequency of duplicate cntact information:
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
cat tor.json | jq -rc .[].contact | grep -v ^null | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr > relay_contact_frequency.txt
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can view these stats [here](./relay_contact_frequency.txt), but based on these results, some interesting observations are made:
|
||
|
|
- 435 relay operators are running more than 1 relay
|
||
|
|
- Almost 50 relay operators are running 10 or more relays
