Conflux splits + traffic across two circuits to Exits that support the protocol. + These circuits are pre-built only, which means that if the pre-built + conflux pool runs out, regular circuits will then be used. + + When using conflux circuit pairs, clients choose the lower-latency + circuit to send data to the Exit. When the Exit sends data to the + client, it maximizes throughput, by fully utilizing both circuits in a + multiplexed fashion. Alternatively, clients can request that the Exit + optimize for latency when transmitting to them, by setting the torrc + option 'ConfluxClientUX latency'. + + Onion services are not currently supported, but will be in arti. Many + other future optimizations will also be possible using this protocol. + Closes ticket 40593.
