Hi,

We sometimes see "Your computer is too slow to handle this many circuit creation requests!" on our servers. Scott Bennett suggested to set MaxOnionsPending to 250 instead of the default of 100, which at least makes the warnings disappear. [1]

I am thinking about modifying out torrc template we use as as basis for all servers. What is the negative impact of setting MaxOnionsPending to 250? Should we instead reduce the bandwidth as suggested in the warning?
