Comment:

 Oh! I hadn't seen #27629.  Maybe we can use some of this too?

 I just did a branch to implement this ticket called `networkstatus_mmap`,
 with PR at https://github.com/torproject/tor/pull/316 .  Now I'll have a
 look at #27629

 I think it might be necessary to defer this to 0.3.6 in any case:
 historically, bugs in our parsing code have been really gross to discover.
