When we remove old routers, use Bloom filters rather than a digestmap-based set in order to tell which ones we absolutely need to keep. This will save us roughly a kazillion little short-lived allocations for hash table entries.

Add a new SMARTLIST_FOREACH_JOIN macro to iterate through two sorted lists in lockstep. This happens at least 3 times in the code so far, and is likely to happen more in the future. Previous attempts to do so proved touchy, tricky, and error-prone: now, we only need to get it right in one place.
svn:r14309
Add new stacklike, free-all-at-once memory allocation strategy. Use it when parsing directory information. This helps parsing speed, and may well help fragmentation some too. hidden-service-related stuff still uses the old tokenizing strategies.
svn:r14194
get_interface_address6() fails regardless of the allocator used,
wever logging to the original severity of 0 causes an assert
error only with the bsd allocator. weird.
svn:r14005
Implement domain-selection for logging. Source is documented; needs documentation in manpage (maybe). For now, see doxygen comment on parse_log_severity_config in log.c
svn:r13875
Fix all remaining shorten-64-to-32 errors in src/common. Some were genuine problems. Many were compatibility errors with libraries (openssl, zlib) that like predate size_t. Partial backport candidate.
svn:r13665
Fix a bug that kept buf_find_string_offset from finding a string at the very end of the buffer. Add a unit test for this. Also, do not save a pointer to a chunk that might get reallocated by buf_pullup().
svn:r13635
Re-tune mempool parametes based on testing on peacetime: use smaller chuncks, free them a little more aggressively, and try very hard to concentrate allocations on fuller chunks. Also, lots of new documentation.
svn:r13484
Add a couple of (currently disabled) strategies for trying to avoid using too much ram in memory pools: prefer putting new cells in almost-full chunks, and be willing to free the last empty chunk if we have not needed it for a while. Also add better output to mp_pool_log_status to track how many mallocs a given memory pool strategy is saving us, so we can tune the mempool parameters.
svn:r13428
As planned, rename networkstatus_vote_t to networkstatus_t, now that v3 networkstatuses are working and standard and v2 networkstatuses are obsolete.
svn:r13383
Push the strdups used for parsing configuration lines into parse_line_from_string(). This will make it easier to parse more complex value formats, which in turn will help fix bug 557
svn:r13020
Fix bug 575: protect the list of logs with a mutex. I couldn't find any appreciable change in logging performance on osx, but ymmv. You can undef USE_LOG_MUTEX to see if stuff gets faster for you.
svn:r13019
Use reference-counting to avoid allocating a zillion little addr_policy_t objects. (This is an old patch that had been sitting on my hard drive for a while.)
svn:r13017
Here, have some terribly clever new buffer code. It uses a mbuf-like strategy rather than a ring buffer strategy, so it should require far far less extra memory to hold any given amount of data. Also, it avoids access patterns like x=malloc(1024);x=realloc(x,1048576);x=realloc(x,1024);append_to_freelist(x) that might have been contributing to memory fragmentation. I've tested it out a little on peacetime, and it seems to work so far. If you want to benchmark it for speed, make sure to remove the #define PARANOIA; #define NOINLINE macros at the head of the module.
svn:r12983
Change tor_addr_t to be a tagged union of in_addr and in6_addr, not of sockaddr_in and sockaddr_in6. It's hardly used in the main code as it is, but let's get it right before it gets popular.
