commit 8a8797f1e45e6124ac93e3a8fb277b5758d7c935 Author: teor teor2345@gmail.com Date: Sat Dec 20 21:59:17 2014 +1100
Fix If-Modified-Since in rapidly updating Tor networks
When V3AuthVotingInterval is low, decrease the delay on the If-Modified-Since header passed to directory servers. This allows us to obtain consensuses promptly when the consensus interval is very short.
This assists in bootstrapping a testing Tor network.
