Re: [tor-talk] 2 hop mode for people that only want to use Tor for censorship circumvention to conserve bandwidth and decrease latency?

Of course VPNs will have lower latency than Tor anyways. The point is
that there should be the moment when the lantency advance doesn't matter
anymore (the difference is negligible). When this will happen there is
no reason to use VPN for general user. We definetely can get there using
faster crypto on faster crypto-accelerated/parallell hardware.
