Comment (by hiro):

 Replying to [comment:24 karsten]:
 > hiro, I just looked a bit more at the data and found a few differences
 that we can work with.  For example, OnionPerf randomly picks a file size
 (with different weights, though) every five minutes whereas Torperf had
 three separate schedules for each file size, which is okay.  Also,
 OnionPerf alternates between direct download and download via onion
 address, which is different from Torperf, but which is okay, too.

 > However, there's one difference that we should fix: the direct downloads
 go to port 8080, not to port 80.  The issue is that the set of exits
 permitting port 8080 may be different from the set permitting port 80, so
 this might impact measurement results.  As far as I can see there are two
 ways to do this: either run OnionPerf on port 80 (which may have security
 implications), or configure a firewall rule to forward port 80 to 8080.  I
 assume we'll want to do the latter.  In that case we'll have to use
 OnionPerf's options `--tgen-listen-port` and `--tgen-connect-port` to tell
 it where to listen (8080) and where to connect (80).

 Hi Karsten sure I can do that.
 In the meantime I have fixed the logrotation issue on op-nl. Hopefully our
 tpo instance should also be ready. I will let you know if everything is
 working correctly on https://onionperf.torproject.org

 More soon.
