Comment(by mikeperry):

 Hrmm, I think the scatter plot is the wrong way to represent this. The
 circuit build timeout doesn't magically make tor fast. It instead should
 be altering the top quartile of results only, and making them more dense.
 It is a strategy for reducing the variance in tor performance.

 What we should do is plot the circuit build timeout as a line on top of
 the timematrix results that also had the quantile lines on it. We should
 then check to see if the slopes of the circuit build timeout lines has any
 relation to the slopes of the quantile lines.

 The quantile lines with the most slope over time for the higher quantiles
 seemed to be the slow and slowratio 50kb fetches. It is those two in
 particular we want to look at first.
