The DoSCircuitCreation/DoSConnection configs are unrelated to what
ReevaluateExitPolicy allows.
DoSCircuitCreation/DoSConnection are enacted by guards, to protect
themselves, and to some extent the rest of the network, from "noisy
IPs" trying to connect to Tor.
ReevaluateExitPolicy is not a DoS opt
P.S:
If this is a client to guard detection only, then why does my exit node also
block a significant amount of DoS (I had around the same statistics when my
guard probability fraction was still zero, so clearly something is working):

I am very well aware of that and how it works, I have seen your commit that got
merged, and am a C/C++ programmer as well.
Nevertheless, this is a feature I wanted anyway, so I could just reload the
config and block IP's or even ranges if SSH range / portscans are done using my
exit.
Right now
Can this get some attention please?
A temporary fix seems to be to either patch the two magic constants of
MIN/MAX_THREADS mentioned in the bugtracker, or to not use the seccomp syscall
sandbox.
Both not obviously not the best options.
