@Toralf Correct, this has nothing to do with firewalls. This is more about better utilisation of slow circuits/relays by deliberately choosing to push relatively lightweight traffic across them. IRC and XMPP do not need 10Mbit/s circuits, not even close. I'm not sure how Tor clients choose the relays they use to build a circuit, and I do realise that a) there are probably more slow relays than fast ones b) attempting to pre-build both a "fast circuit" and a "slow circuit" will reduce the number of candidates for each. I'm just looking for ways to drive more traffic across slow relays. :) Best, -- Paritesh Boyeyoko paritesh.boyeyoko@gmail.com On Tuesday 16 Sep 2014 17:36:41 Toralf Förster wrote:

Beside the general answer (probably "NO") - you mean something, which cannot be handled by a firewall ?
