+ Specify the scheduler type that tor should use to handle outbound data on
+ channels. This is an ordered list by priority which means that the first
+ value will be tried first and if unavailable, the second one is tried and
+ so on. It is possible to change thse values at runtime.
+ (Default: KIST,KISTLite,Vanilla)

+ The possible scheduler types are:
+ +
+ **KIST**: Kernel Informed Socket Transport. Tor will use the kernel tcp
+ information stack per-socket to make an informed decision on if it should
+ send or not the data. (Only available on Linux)
+ +
+ **KISTLite**: Same as KIST but without kernel support which means that tor
+ will use all the same mecanics as KIST but without the TCP information the
+ kernel can provide.
+ +
+ **Vanilla**: The scheduler that tor has always used that is do as much as
+ possible or AMAP.
+
+[[KISTSchedRunInterval]] **KISTSchedRunInterval** __NUM__ **msec**::
+ If KIST or KISTLite is used in Schedulers option, this control at which
+ interval the scheduler tick is. If the value is 0 msec, the value is taken
+ from the consensus if possible else it will fallback to the default 10
+ msec. Maximum possible value is 100 msec. (Default: 0 msec)
+
+[[KISTSockBufSizeFactor]] **KISTSockBufSizeFactor** __NUM__::
+ If KIST is used in Schedulers, this is a multiplier of the per-socket
+ limit calculation of the KIST algorithm. (Default: 1.0)
