Something to keep in mind is Facebook intentionally makes their onion service faster than normal. They are not concerned with location-privacy so they disable most protections. If you need a stable and fast onion service for testing, Facebook's may be the best choice (for the near future, at least). I'm curious, do you know what is failing? Are the connection requests timing out? If you attach a controller to the tor client and watch for circuit events, do you see the connection failing at the same point frequently?
