Clients shouldn't have hundreds of open sockets; it's normal for servers to have hundreds of connections to their OR ports. (This is because currently, a typical server is connected to every other server. Yes, we know this sucks; we're working in improvements here.) > I also noted that there are some > additional listening sockets!!!

Could anyone that > have a windows tor server up use process explorer to see if it has such > listening sockets?? Very strange. I'm pretty sure,from looking at the tor_socketpair code, that the listening socket should get closed. How weird! If you can investigate what (if anything) is going wrong here, that would be very helpful. We don't have many windows developers right now. yrs, -- Nick Mathewson
