Thanks for the suggestion; will do.

So simulating this would mean an initial connection, then disconnection and reconnection cycles as low-uptime nodes be low-uptime? As far as bias towards low-uptime nodes affecting reliability, it's worth noting that all this talk of Metropolis-Hastings is only relevant to the new probe routing and doesn't affect the existing routing behaviors. If this routing includes low-uptime nodes that's good! It would mean a more uniform selection of endpoints which allows more accurate and comprehensive measurement of the network. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJPpMAZAAoJECLJP19KqmFuooQQAMIH3I4C5ARaZGlItAnGNU0f kbm835bikBcN+NW2ICAzojS/tvirnDX4FPSGs+jyolUYse915MCWQRXLLi14G1VN 5pFfpm9cNHxqZB1fl4Cr7ndcBy6KFV0qzNK+K/RA4sCPGhiU63GaInPGEeoXwpFL I310RDaHGgGwbxcRokgnwg+6pPGqwSwOy/v7C+gu8ayfoD7ebP+Ow2fcjEmDDV/g OJwfbnveiGkdDaHb6GA5jpFgrkqSbod7TDKXp0+vXp9XL4wpcI7f486kDCFEplTp E5K0UoWoNVYgSHjrffELhdQy3ehrQHaSayBUaOm4K3bI2VRni1UIOlm4ixkqa4m1 09NAy39HYc2xlnyyBh8/zx1L/6l6SG0Thkms2uhhm4gnCYySYHzTxn3fXpuclUIU 15THxZocCd8rQxZzwooOSSseGdxG3S5cBYsttOX1VJiyUZjdBS1cg9uNF38bm2d/ /qZwt87a1hVyQ47U6O36BX7E8hT5aYbskPLGdF74xI1QiSIn8ZQO46Q9thBTytHs AxbTr568pvSYqbhC/N4PrxESiMxNoj5agP9Jo4MV5pd8QD4rVahPZoSyLM7qyyp3 uRR+vEo8zjSxCzZj/TQUfuvb8QsUvkHuuR0+6jod4s9y0DnkszndJ05dqydSLQu/ pCZT1uUEoXqJ4us1IC3e =gMU0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
