$ cat chutney/tools/bootstrap-network.sh

offset=$(expr \( $(date +%s) + $VOTING_OFFSET \) % 300)
CONFOPT="TestingV3AuthVotingStartOffset"
for file in net/nodes/*a/torrc; do

That's just cheating! It may work, but it's pretty ugly :)

Without fluxcapacitor, as you suggested bootstrapping takes around 24
seconds, with FC ~10 sec.

$ export CHUTNEY_PATH=$HOME/tor/chutney
# Stop network after the script is done
$ echo './chutney stop $CHUTNEY_NETWORK' >> src/test/test-network.sh
# add tor-gencert to the PATH
$ export PATH=$PATH:$PWD/src/tools

$ time ./src/test/test-network.sh
real    0m23.592s
user    0m2.108s
sys     0m0.452s

$ time ~/fluxcapacitor/fluxcapacitor ./src/test/test-network.sh
real    0m10.164s
user    0m2.216s
sys     0m1.676s


With options that make tor less noisy it's even faster: ~6.5 seconds:

$ echo -e "TokenBucketRefillInterval 1
second\nServerDNSDetectHijacking 0\n" >>
$CHUTNEY_PATH/torrc_templates/common.i

$ time ~/fluxcapacitor/fluxcapacitor ./src/test/test-network.sh
real    0m6.489s
user    0m2.464s
sys     0m1.296s


Fluxcapacitor does make it go faster, but the test (script) must be
self-contained, ie: it must tear down the network after it's done.
