- Figure out good ways to instrument Tor internals so we can tell
how well our bandwidth and flow-control stuff is actually working.
- What ports eat the bandwidth?
- How full do queues get?
- How much latency do queues get?
- Features
- Rate limit at clients:
- Give clients an upper bound on how much they're willing to use
the network if they're not relaying?
- ... or group client circuits by IP at the server and rate-limit
like that.
- Other features
- Proposals to implement:
- 146: reflect long-term stability
- 147: Stop using v2 directories to generate v3 votes.
- Start pinging as soon as we learn about a relay, not on a
22-minute cycle. Prioritize new and volatile relays for
testing.
- Proposals to improve and implement
- 158: microdescriptors
- 160: list bandwidth in consensus
- and actually set it reasonably
- and actually use it.

- 149: learn info from netinfo cells.
- 134: handle authority fragmentation (Needs more analysis)
- Needs a proposal, or at least some design
- Detect client-status better
- Have authorities report relay and voting status better: make it
easy to answer, "Why is my server not listed/not Guard/not
Running/etc"
- Have consensuses come in multiple "flavours".
- Weaken the requirements for being a Guard, based on K's
measurements.
- Adaptive timeouts for giving up on circuits and streams.
- Have weight for picking new nodes as guards be less stupid
- Lagged weight updates in consensuses: don't just move abruptly.
d Don't kill a circuit on the first failed extend.
- Installers
- Switch to MSI on win32
- Use Thandy, perhaps?
- Deprecations
- Make .exit safe, or make it off-by-default.
