I see - so I'll probably still see the problem with a huge number of circuits being created after I've finished building 0.2.4. Is there any way to limit this, I'm guessing reducing the bandwidth wouldn't actually help? I guess I'll look into how much further I can overclock the CPU...

Aha - makes sense, I'll just build it myself. Thanks for the quick response.
So - the new handshake in 0.2.4.x doesn't help with the ongoing issues? On that page I linked it was suggested it might...
It does help! It helps clients a lot.
The change is that your relay now prioritizes requests from 0.2.4 clients, and then spends whatever time it has left handling requests from 0.2.3 clients.
