> I noticed the gap between TorPerf and Shadow seems to expand with the
download length. Intuition tells me that either Shadow is miscalculating
packet delays somewhere, or our latency model changed (or was off in the
first place). Though I continue to be impressed with Shadow's accuracy
here in the face of so many things that could go wrong.

I analyzed the Shadow code and tested a change that I thought may be the
culprit, but the results were not significantly different than the
previously reported.
Also, the most recent network setup uses only 42 GiB of RAM. Our EC2
instance has 68 GiB available, so I am now scaling up the network
slightly. I'm hoping to be able to launch a series of real experiments by
the end of the week. Roger, Nick Hopper, and I can then poke holes in the
results some time during Usenix Security next week.
