 Replying to [comment:9 mikeperry]:
 > Personally I want to say that I've really never liked this option. We
 should make it as light as possible, because people do send important yet
 big files over Tor, such as protest video or leaked surveillance video. I
 think 5Mbyte is waay to small for this.

 I think any reasonable fixed value is too inflexible for this.

 See
 https://blog.torproject.org/blog/research-problem-adaptive-throttling-tor-
 clients-entry-guards
 for the next research steps.

 I'm going to close this trac entry, labelling our early experiment as a
 success.

 Sebastian, feel free to continue your experiment if you like, or you can
 repurpose fluxe3 to some new experiment. Thanks!
