As compared to the --enable-geoip-stats flag in 0.2.1.x, + there are a few improvements: 1) stats are written to disk exactly + every 24 hours; 2) estimated shares of v2 and v3 requests are + determined as mean values, not at the end of a measurement period; + 3) unresolved requests are listed with country code '??'; + 4) directories also measure download times. + - Exit nodes that configure with --enable-exit-stats and set + "ExitPortStatistics 1" write statistics on the number of exit + streams and transferred bytes per port to disk every 24 hours. + - Relays that configure with --enable-buffer-stats and set + "CellStatistics 1" write statistics to disk every 24 hours on how + long cells spend in their circuit queues. + - Entry nodes that configure with --enable-entry-stats and set + "EntryStatistics 1" write statistics to disk every 24 hours on + the rough number and origins of connecting clients. + + o Minor features: + - New --digests command-line switch to output the digests of the + source files Tor was built with. + - The "torify" script now uses torsocks where available. + - The memarea code now uses a sentinel value at the end of each area + to make sure nothing writes beyond the end of an area. This might + help debug some conceivable causes of bug 930. + - Time and memory units in the configuration file can now be set to + fractional units. For example, "2.5 MB" is now a valid value for + AccountingMax. + - Certain Tor clients (such as those behind check.torproject.org) may + want to fetch the consensus in an extra early manner. To enable this + a user may now set FetchDirInfoExtraEarly to 1. This also depends on + setting FetchDirInfoEarly to 1. Previous behavior will stay the same + as only certain clients who must have this information sooner should + set this option. + + o Deprecated and removed features: + - The controller no longer accepts the old obsolete "addr-mappings/" + or "unregistered-servers-" GETINFO values. + - Hidden services no longer publish version 0 descriptors, and clients + do not request or use version 0 descriptors. However, the authorities + still accept and serve version 0 descriptors when contacted by older + hidden services/clients. + - The EXTENDED_EVENTS and VERBOSE_NAMES controller features are now + always on; using them is necessary for correct forward-compatible + controllers. + + Changes in version 0.2.1.20 - 2009-??-?? o Minor bugfixes: - Fix a signed/unsigned compile warning in 0.2.1.19. |
