[tor-dev] meek-server performance improvements?

I saw you say on IRC that you had an idea for improving the efficiency of meek-server. What's your idea? The server hosting meek-azure is passing 90% CPU at times. One idea I've seen is using one connection for upstream data (data-carrying POSTs, emptry responses), and one connection for downstrea

Hi Tor Community! My name is Pierre and I'm a second year PhD student from France working on browser fingerprinting. I'm really fortunate that my proposal for this year Google Summer of Code has been been selected. My goal for this summer is to set up a website similar to Panopticlick or AmIUniqu

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi devs, the CollecTor Git repository just moved from metrics-db to collector: https://gitweb.torproject.org/collector.git/ The old name made sense when the Tor network data archive was still part of Metrics, but it's rather confusing since Collec
