Apparently all the stuff that does a linear scan over all the DNS cache entries can get really expensive when your DNS cache is very large. It's hard to say how much this will help performance, since gprof doesn't count time spent in OpenSSL or zlib, but I'd guess 10%. Also, this patch removes calls to assert_connection_ok() from inside the read and write callbacks, which are similarly unneeded, and a little costlier than I'm happy with. This is probably worth backporting to 0.2.0.
Tor protects your privacy on the internet by hiding the connection
between your Internet address and the services you use. We believe Tor
is reasonably secure, but please ensure you read the instructions and
configure it properly.
