Since your default configuration & github document doesn't tell me much,
I'd like to hear developer's opinion on this.
vanguards.conf
Bandguards:
circ_max_age_hours = 1 (Mine is just simple WWW service without fancy
WebSockets, downloads or videos)
circ_max_hsdesc_kilobytes = 30
circ_max_megabytes = 5
Q1. Is using smaller value such as 1 for circ_max_age_hours have any
problems regarding anonymity?
Q2. You didn't mention default size of hidden service descriptor. What
value is it? This is not OnionShare or onionbalance.
(if you can do {circ_max_hsdesc_kilobytes != normal_desc_size
kill_connection} that's great)
Q3. You said "HTTP GET can resume if this limit is hit, HTTP POST will
not" in circ_max_megabytes. You better add this text, don't you think: "If
the client reach this limit, we close the connection and create another
one to continue operation. Client will experience small downtime."
Q4. Can you add an option to slow down packets on purpose, to prevent
simple DDoS? e.g. 'limit_packets_per_seconds = 10' will allow 10 packets
per seconds and delay exceeded packets (x) seconds
