 Our recently added
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/commitdiff/6f2919a CONN_BW
 events] include a ConnType enumeration, but doesn't really describe it.
 You can mostly guess their meanings, but questions off the top of my head
 include...

 * Is OR connections both client and inter-tor relay traffic?
 * Is DIR for both mirroring and retrieving descriptors?

 Personally I'd suggest breaking the type down more to be 'CLIENT / RELAY /
 EXIT / DIR / DIR_MIRROR' but that's up to Karsten.
