Comment:

 It might be that this issue killed the relaydescs module 1.5 days ago by
 blocking the downloader indefinitely:

 {{{

 module of CollecTor.

 }}}

 There should be a line like this (copied over from the previous run), but
 there wasn't:

 {{{
 2016-10-30 22:35:19,933 INFO o.t.c.r.RelayDescriptorDownloader:1067
 Finished downloading relay descriptors from the directory authorities.
 }}}

 Raising priority to high.
