Speeding up Tor [sorry for the new thread]

[Sorry for opening a new thread; I deleted the message this would have
been a reply to, before I really read things through.]

Someone earlier posted a link to a page with some torrc options, meant
to speed up Tor:
http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackhat-seo/black-hat-tools/3349-speeding-up-tor.html

I just wanted to say, that I've used a similar set of options for quite
some time. It's nothing new; in fact, it's listed in the Tor wiki.

I personally believe that they do help to speed up browsing through Tor;
however, this is purely subjective. I've done no benchmarking.

Tor itself seems to have sped up for browsing quite a bit, in my
experience, over the past year or so on its own; I suspect this has to
do with more relays coming online. =:oD
