  1. o Major features:
  2. - Increase the base amount of time that a canonical connection
  3. (one that we have made to a known OR) is allowed to stay idle
  4. from 3 minutes to 15 minutes. This leaks less information
  5. about when circuits have closed, and avoids unnecessary overhead
  6. from renegotiating connections. Part of a fix for ticket 6799.
  7. - Instead of closing connections after they have been idle for a
  8. fixed interval, randomly add up to 50% to each connection's
  9. maximum timeout. This makes it harder to tell when the last
  10. circuit closed by looking at when a connection closes. Part of a
  11. fix for ticket 6799.
  12. - Base connection idleness tests on the actual time elapsed since
  13. the connection last had circuits, not on the time when we last
  14. added non-padding. This change also makes it harder for an
  15. observer to tell when the last circuit closed by looking at when
  16. a connection closes. Part of a fix for ticket 6799.
  17. Incidentally fixes bug 12023; bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha.
