commit 52b1370e80f42a39322c7609da72c7c12759476a Author: Damian Johnson atagar@torproject.org Date: Wed Jan 30 15:49:07 2019 -0800
Download gzip compressed descriptors by default
Good point from starlight that we should default to downloading compressed rather than plaintext descriptors...
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/29186
I purposefully chose a plaintext default because when I added Stem compression support tor had relability issues with it...
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/9379
... but that hasn't been the case for years. DocTor has been downloading compressed descriptors since 2015 so it's well past time we took some confidence in changing the default.
