Is this a bad thing to do? (Apart from getting lots of warning messages
in the log file?) Of course I don't want to cause any problems on the
Tor network.
From a pragmatic point of view that would also mean that you wouldn't
be able to log in from remote if TOR gobbles up all sockets.
Gee, what a crippled machine...
No idea what influence that has regarding TOR in general, as a
network. But certainly you can't harm established circuits, it just
prevents new circuits being build up - that affects your local
TOR-software, rather than the whole net. I guess.
