Changes in version 0.2.2.17-alpha - 2010-09-30 Changes in version 0.2.2.17-alpha - 2010-09-30
Tor 0.2.2.17-alpha introduces a feature to make it harder for clients
to use one-hop circuits (which can put the exit relays at higher risk,
plus unbalance the network); fixes a big bug in bandwidth accounting
for relays that want to limit their monthly bandwidth use; fixes a
big pile of bugs in how clients tolerate temporary network failure;
and makes our adaptive circuit build timeout feature (which improves
client performance if your network is fast while not breaking things
if your network is slow) better handle bad networks.

o Major bugfixes (on the circuit build timeout feature, 0.2.2.x):
- Ignore cannibalized circuits when recording circuit build times.
This should provide for a minor performance improvement for hidden
service users using 0.2.2.14-alpha, and should remove two spurious
notice log messages. Bugfix on 0.2.2.14-alpha; fixes bug 1740.
- Simplify the logic that causes us to decide if the network is
unavailable for purposes of recording circuit build times. If we
receive no cells whatsoever for the entire duration of a circuit's
full measured lifetime, the network is probably down. Also ignore
one-hop directory fetching circuit timeouts when calculating our
circuit build times. These changes should hopefully reduce the
cases where we see ridiculous circuit build timeouts for people
with spotty wireless connections. Fixes part of bug 1772; bugfix
on 0.2.2.2-alpha.
- Prevent the circuit build timeout from becoming larger than
the maximum build time we have ever seen. Also, prevent the time
period for measurement circuits from becoming larger than twice that
value. Fixes the other part of bug 1772; bugfix on 0.2.2.2-alpha.
