Hi David,
thanks for your reply and confirming that there is no event for this,
so the best option is to make a simple loop and test every few seconds if the
download is completed I guess.

In both cases we fetch the same kind of descriptors.
1) torrc: UseMicrodescriptors 0 -> start tor -> fast to complete descriptor
fetching
2) no torrc change -> start tor -> controller.set_conf('UseMicrodescriptors',
'0') -> slow
Maybe (2) is slower because tor does not start the download directly after
set_conf('UseMicrodescriptors', '0')
is received.
kind regards,
