+    load balancing information into the consensus: One is the

+    authorities generate the weights that clients should use and put

+    that in the consensus, the other approach is to just put bandwidth

+    information from the server descriptor there.  The latter option

+    is probably friendlier when one also considers <a

+    post on the or-dev mailinglist</a> sugests that a hash identifying a

+    node's exit policy be added to the consensus document.  The addition

+    of another 160 high-entropy bits per node to the consensus might

+    be a cause for concern but we think that since a lot of the exit

+    policies are the same the consensus document will compress nicely.
