 I have a small threaded program that connects to the tor socks port and
 issues a GET request on hidden services.

 I noticed that if it makes 7 concurrent calls to one hidden service, then
 all of the requests will fail immediately.

 If it makes 6 concurrent calls then it is successful, for anything more
 than 6, a pause or sleep between calls was needed.

 I think it is calling all 6 hsdirs and not waiting for a reply from any of
 them, and with the 7th call it fails all 7 requests on the spot.

 Relevant log lines:
