#21969: We're missing descriptors for some of our primary entry guards -----------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: asn | Owner: asn Type: defect | Status: assigned Priority: High | Milestone: Tor: 0.3.1.x-final Component: Core Tor/Tor | Version: Severity: Normal | Resolution: Keywords: tor-guard, tor-bridge | Actual Points: Parent ID: | Points: 1.5 Reviewer: | Sponsor: SponsorU -----------------------------------+------------------------------------
Comment (by s7r): OK switching on that branch as of now on some machines and will get back with comments. This will help us understand the problem from comment:13 where the cutoff time is > ~1 hour (one consensus period). What do you think we should do in regards to the problem described in comment:1 where it complains only for few seconds (much much less than an entire consensus period)? I think it might be because: - we have many relays in the consensus (over 7000), the number is growing and it takes more and more time for clients to download and process descriptors, therefor having few seconds of lag here - we have no feature to download with priority descriptors we are interested in (primary guards, when/if they are available), maybe even try simultaneous download from all 3 DirGuards at once and close the rest of connections once one finishes. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/21969#comment:18> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online _______________________________________________ tor-bugs mailing list tor-bugs@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-bugs
