Comment(by arma):

 That argues for "no significant difference between Tor and Tor+stunnel"

 Meaning the slow-down that people are seeing in Iran is a combination of
 "Tor is slower than it was before" and "when Tor is slow, it is especially
 no fun on a slow link" (#4487), and not due to any fancy "DPI but we won't
 block it we'll just throttle it" scheme.
