2015-10-02	Modify 210-faster...consensus-bootstrap for exponential backoff	teor (Tim Wilson-Brown)
	To implement #4483 we need to contact multiple directory mirrors to increase bootstrap reliability. This patch implements the exponential backoff suggested in https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/4483#comment:22 The patch also analyses the reliability of the new scheme, and compares it to the current Tor implementation.
