/**
 * \file timers.c
 * \brief Wrapper around William Ahern's fast hierarchical timer wheel
 *   implementation, to tie it in with a libevent backend.
 *
 * Only use these functions from the main thread.
 *
 * The main advantage of tor_timer_t over using libevent's timers is that
 * they're way more efficient if we need to have thousands or millions of
 * them.  For more information, see
 *   http://www.25thandclement.com/~william/projects/timeout.c.html
 *
 * Periodic timers are available in the backend, but I've turned them off.
 * We can turn them back on if needed.
 */

/* Notes:
 *
 * Having a way to free all timers on shutdown would free people from the
 * need to track them.  Not sure if that's clever though.
 *
 * In an ideal world, Libevent would just switch to use this backend, and we
 * could throw this file away.  But even if Libevent does switch, we'll be
 * stuck with legacy libevents for some time.
