Comment (by teor): Thanks for the bug reports, but they aren't really helping us make progress on this issue. We know that tor needs some design changes to resolve this issue: Replying to [comment:93 teor]: > #16844 and #21969 have conflicting goals, so we need to write a proposal that balances these goals. See #30817. In particular, tor needs to try harder to download descriptors if it has a good link, but backoff if it has a bad link, so that at least some descriptors can download. We don't know which case applies to your tor instance, because you only sent us 1 second worth of logs. If you'd like, we can make a ticket that delays those annoying logs until tor has been missing descriptors for an hour or so. That is a simple change, it will stop annoying relay operators, and it might get us better diagnostics. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/21969#comment:99> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
