     That CPU usage looks pretty high to me, but I still don't know what
you were accustomed to seeing tor use before, so is it higher so far?
Lower?

    Okay.  But, again, I'd still like to know whether the hugepages are
helping tor's CPU load or hurting it, and I would need some historical
clues, even if just estimates, to know the answer to that.

     It's in the queue, but I ran into a firefox bug again a few minutes
ago and had to kill it.  Now your statistics page is competing with the
reloading of well over 200 open tabs. B^}  Once it has loaded, though,
I'll refresh the page from time to time to check on things.  How often
are the graphs updated?  (Yes, I see the 5-minute refresh timeout on the
page, but is the timeout related to graph regeneration?)

     Ooh!  A cloak-and-dagger challenge for OR-TALK subscribers?  Cool!
:)  Not that I'm into that sort of thing, you understand...ahem.
