If I remember right you're doing file caching / serving
in the browsers-as-torrent-nodes layer. Yes that
asynchronous would seem to break end to end timing.

But the 654321012 byte file "into one tor circuit" from
user at one end would still count same bytes out to
a "reasynching end point" user at the other end.
(Or users plural if requested by more than one user).
Between otherwise relatively quiet endpoints / users.

If they are all shuffling around encrypted bits fulltime,
without being driven to do so by end user demand,
such that the start and stop of the bytes of the poster
and requestor[s] can't be delineated, that looks more
generally like the fill traffic.
