It's not that simple. Every descriptor is stored in a separate file. Archiving the cached-* files would add a lot of redundancy. > As to future distribution and if size is a problem ... > My current view of getinfo desc/all-recent is 4.356MiB, 1.801MiB > compressed.

Good idea. Removing the crypto parts did the trick. The compressed June descriptors are now 20 MB rather than about 100 MB before. I think we can afford the bandwidth (even if 50 or-talkers download the thing): http://freehaven.net/~karsten/volatile/server-descriptors-2009-06-short.tar.bz2 You'll probably want to use the published timestamps or write your own little parsing application to match descriptors with network status lines in the consensuses: http://freehaven.net/~karsten/volatile/consensuses-2009-06.tar.gz (I'll remove both links in 1 month from now.) Let us know what you find!
