 Regarding [https://github.com/ahf/snowflake-
 notes/blob/cd7ebf5724a15b1eb9dc1b6cd1a61c7a78ce499d/Protocol.markdown#the-
 layer-between-the-client-to-proxy-and-proxy-to-broker the question]
 > Does the "token bucket" algorithm in Snowflake right now do what we
 think?
 I suspect the answer is no. I'm pretty sure `BucketRateLimit` didn't work
 before [https://gitweb.torproject.org/pluggable-
 transports/snowflake.git/commit/?id=ab34f8e889e9b516f55dc255a8dd125a46725021
 ab34f8e889] (part of #28732), and I won't swear that the commit fixed it
 :) I was tempted, then, to rip out the rate-limit code for the sake of
 starting from a simpler basis, but decided not to.

 I'm pretty sure `BucketRateLimit` and `DummyRateLimit` are based off
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/flashproxy.git/tree/proxy/flashproxy.js?h=1.7#n870
 objects of the same name] in the flash proxy code. As I recall, they were
 working in flash proxy.
