 I ran my Tor client on my laptop for a while in a stable place. It ended
 up thinking my connection is super-fast:
 {{{

 Jun 21 01:49:15.786 [notice] Based on 1000 circuit times, it looks like we
 don't need to wait so long for circuits to finish. We will now assume a
 circuit is too slow to use after waiting 2 seconds.

 }}}

 But then I restarted my Tor, this time with a bridge that is in .za:

 And now my Tor client is dead in the water.
