Comment (by asn):

 Just some notes from a recent discussion about onionbalance vs the current
 poor man's onionbalance where every node races each other for uploading
 descriptors:

 With the poor man's solution, there are issues when you start
 removing/rebooting nodes, since if the offline node currently has the
 active descriptor there will be reachability issues until another node
 wins the race.

 We could fix this by making all nodes upload more frequently, and be able
 to pause publishes from the rebooting node, and also by ensuring that all
 clients will re-fetch descriptors  smoothly if they can't connect to the
 intro points.
