The + PathBiasCircThreshold option controls how many circuits we need to build + through a guard before we make these checks.

When we have seen more than PathBiasScaleThreshold + circuits through a guard, we divide our observations by + PathBiasScaleFactor, so that new observations don't get swamped by old + ones. + + + + By default, or if a negative value is provided for one of these options, + Tor uses reasonable defaults from the networkstatus consensus document. + If no defaults are available there, these options default to 20, .70, + .50, 200, and 4 respectively. + + SERVER OPTIONS -------------- |
