7.3. Circuit-level flow control
To control a circuit's bandwidth usage, each OR keeps track of
two 'windows', consisting of how many RELAY_DATA cells it is
allowed to package for transmission, and how many RELAY_DATA cells
it is willing to deliver to streams outside the network.
To control a circuit's bandwidth usage, each OR keeps track of two
'windows', consisting of how many RELAY_DATA cells it is allowed to
originate (package for transmission), and how many RELAY_DATA cells
it is willing to consume (receive for local streams). These limits
do not apply to cells that the OR receives from one host and relays
to another.
Each 'window' value is initially set to 1000 data cells
in each direction (cells that are not data cells do not affect
the window). When an OR is willing to deliver more cells, it sends a
