Comment(by special):

 As I noted on IRC yesterday, I don't believe this issue is valid; that may
 have been the intent of the code, but it looks like the desc_is_dirty flag
 in rend_consider_services_upload results in uploading descriptors as soon
 as possible after startup. That matches what I've observed.

 This does, of course, bring up the opposing bug: publishing descriptors
 immediately means that you can correlate the publication times for
 multiple services on the same Tor instance or with relay uptime.
