Re: [tor-relays] We need much more bridges with obfs4 and iat-mode set to 1 or 2..barely can't find any.

Re: [tor-relays] General overload -> DNS timeouts

Well, I have to say thanks to the update to tor 0.4.6.9 the DNS overload issue is gone. My consensus Weight went down sightly due to the constant overload flag. Lets see if time will help heal that. Good work so far. Thanks, John C. On 2021-12-21 07:39 AM, nusenu wrote: bobby stickel: I

Hello all, I would have to agree on this it appears that the DNS failure timeout is too low. I have more then enough bandwidth to host tor exit nodes, and my own unbound full recursive relay and yet i still get the timeout message 1-1.5%. Sometimes even weird amounts such as 40-50%. I have be

The stable flag refers to your fingerprint being up for long lived circuits. Being on a dynamic up won’t change that. So in principle the stable flag means that the server is up and reach able for most of the time no matter what the address or IP may be. Thanks, John Csuti > On Jan 26, 2
