7.1. Link throttling

+ Each client or relay should do appropriate bandwidth throttling to

Communicants rely on TCP's default flow control to push back when they
stop reading.
+ The mainline Tor implementation uses token buckets (one for reads,
+ one for writes) for the rate limiting.
+
+ Since 0.2.0.x, Tor has let the user specify an additional pair of
+ token buckets for "relayed" traffic, so people can deploy a Tor relay
+ with strict rate limiting, but also use the same Tor as a client. To
+ avoid partitioning concerns we combine both classes of traffic over a
+ given OR connection, and keep track of the last time we read or wrote
+ a high-priority (non-relayed) cell. If it's been less than N seconds
+ (currently N=30), we give the whole connection high priority, else we
+ give the whole connection low priority. We also give low priority
+ to reads and writes for connections that are serving directory
+ information. See proposal 111 for details.
