Hi Byron, 

I've been using shadow a bit-- I think these simulators are important for 
testing, but Shadow, at least, certainly seems to have limitations, in some 
crucial respects.  Running shadow w Tor (which is only logical, because many 
BCT transactions transpire over Tor) is not as 'light' as presented and slows 
my own box down quite a bit, so the stats can't possibly be accurate... I don't 
know if this answers any questions or if you've had this experience at all -- 
perhaps it is negligible on a more powerful machine than my own-- or perhaps 
there is an adjustment still unaccounted?

Regards,
Nina K
