Difference Between "Number of Routers" And "Number Of Descriptors"
Hi, So upon checking my relay status at torstatus.blutimage.de, I saw Number of Routers In Cache: Number of Descriptors In Cache: I wanted to double check, what is the difference between “Number of Routers” and “Number of Descriptors”? I know Number of Routers means number of relays currently running. Thank you.

"Descriptors" usually means "relay details, signed by relays". They are usually kept by the authorities for a week after they are created and uploaded by relays. But I don't know where to find the documentation or code for that site to confirm. It says at the bottom of the page:

But that site is down. T
