Comment (by arthuredelstein):

 FWIW I have been running a daily scan of all exits here:
 https://arthuredelstein.net/exits/

 For each exit, I make 10 connection attempts to http://example.com and
 record the percentage of timeouts. Here's the source:
 https://github.com/arthuredelstein/tor_dns_survey

 I agree it would be good to have something like this as part of OnionPerf.
 We want to get and keep the timeout rate near zero.
