I don't have any direct knowledge, I used to be part of the bad-relays mailing list (which is invite only) but I know that there are many scanners like exitmap (designed to find bad exits) and other scanners designed to find bad HSDirs. A lot of the cases of targeted denial of service would be part of finding guards for specific users or onion services...but making yourself the guard for that service or user is infeasible, so more commonly such attacks would be temporary and hard to reproduce.
