Comment (by asn):

 Some furhter input from arma:
 {{{
 18:25 <@armadev> i mean, the old behavior was:
 18:26 <@armadev> fetch the onion descriptor, try each of the intro points,
 if they're all down, fetch a new version of the descriptor in case it
 changed, if it didn't
                  change, fail.
 18:26 <@armadev> and i guess on further attempts, either "keep failing"
 for a while, or "fetch a new descriptor, oh it's the same as the one we
 already have that
                  failed, ok fail"
 18:26 <@armadev> is the new behavior different?
 }}}
 {{{
 18:52 <@armadev> i guess it's also related to the weird behavior where if
 you have five socks streams for the onion, you'll have five descriptor
 fetches or something
 }}}
