Comment (by fristonio):
Ok got that, so the first request that the client make to the directory
server is hinted with the digest of the directory server it downloaded the
consensus from. During startup scheduled requests are also set up which
are made periodically to fetch the consensus from a random directory
authority. So essentially we don't want to launch a certificate fetch
always during the scheduled periodic consensus fetch but only in those
cases when consensus are waiting for certs?
Thanks teor for your help. :)
I will have it patched then.
