- Is daily accounting preferable? That is, what's best, shorter or

This issued was touched on recently here: http://www.mail-archive.com/tor-relays%40lists.torproject.org/msg04996.html
Excerpt: "As the Tor manual says, it's better to have a fast relay available some of the time instead of having a slow relay available all the time."
- How does hibernation play with the Guard flag? I know Guards rotation
plays a crucial role in users privacy, and it seems to me hibernation would really hurt a client that selected you as its Guard, since it will have either to run with one less available Guard, or pick a new one and increase its risk. Also, I know there are talks about making only 1 Guard selected, how would that play with hibernation?
Not sure but I think the configuration made to satisfy question #1 is going to override this concern.
