New description:

 Torflow caps individual nodes at 5% of the consensus weight.

 When Tor gets better multithreading, we might need to implement a cap.

 Edit: fix short sentence.

Comment (by teor):

 Since we're using observed bandwidths, we must limit the maximum node
 bandwidth.

 5% is ok, but 1% might be better, because the largest relay is only 0.5%.
