Comment(by karsten):

 Here's how we can remove item 1 from my last comment's list and start
 collecting all descriptors that don't get into the consensus:

 Once a day, we download `/tor/server/all` and `/tor/extra/all` from all
 eight directory authorities.  These files contain all known server and
 extra-info descriptors at the time.  The files are 4.3M and 5.7M in size
 as of today.

 Is it acceptable to download another 10M from the directory authorities
 per day?  And is once per day sufficient?
