This prevents us from running out of memory as a relay if + circuits fill up faster than they can be drained. Fixes bug 9063; + bugfix on the 54th commit of Tor. This bug is a further fix beyond + bug 6252, whose fix was merged into 0.2.3.21-rc. + + This change also fixes an earlier approach taken in 0.2.4.13-alpha, + where we tried to solve this issue simply by imposing an upper limit + on the number of queued cells for a single circuit. That approach + proved to be problematic, since there are ways to provoke clients to + send a number of cells in excess of any such reasonable limit. Fixes + bug 9072; bugfix on 0.2.4.13-alpha. + + - Limit hidden service descriptors to at most ten introduction + points, to slow one kind of guard enumeration.
