Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Replying to [comment:3 bugzilla]:
 > Oops, algorithm in comment:2 is not so plain: first request is the
 second actually (first was in step 1)
 If the Firefox Developer Tools window isn't open at step 1, the Network
 tab doesn't show any requests when you first open it. With the first
 request i meant the first one in the request list in the Network tab after
 the refresh at step 4. There should be only one request in this list
 because the page i linked has no other resources it needs to load.
 Furthermore, the list of requests gets cleared after each refresh (which
 is the default unless the setting has been changed).

 > it always misses header on alpha
 Does loading node information on [https://globe.torproject.org/] work for
 you on alpha when the header is missing?

 > except exitnode was changed by timeout
 Did the exit node change alter the responses you got?

 > how can it reappear if algorithm states to update only when header is
 not missing?
 This could happen when you continue to refresh after you found that the
 header is missing. The steps are only to reproduce the missing header
 case.
