+    <small><em>We did some initial measuring of Tor clients
143
+    bootstrapping. The results are not very surprising: a client
144
+    fetches about 10k of certs, one consensus for 140k (now 90k, see
145
+    next paragraph), and about 1.5 megs of Server Descriptors (after
146
+    half of which it starts building circuits).</small></em>

149

150
+    40% and has already been implemented and merged into the spec.
151
+    Implementation is part of the 0.2.1.x-alpha tree and the code will
152
+    take effect used once two-thirds of the authorities have
153

159
+    href="http://archives.seul.org/or/dev/Jun-2008/msg00013.html">sent to
160
+    or-dev</a>. There are some questions to be answered from other Tor
161
+    developers first, but other than that I think it's fine and could
162

168

169
+    far as I can see at the moment: move load balancing info into the
170
+    consensus (should not be hard), implement something so that Tor
171
+    clients can fetch SDs on demand from routers along their circuit
172
+    while they are buliding it (described in the draft), and deal with
173
+    exit selection. We're developing ideas for the last part, although
174
+    some possibilities are mentioned in the draft.</small></em>
