Component:  Torperf      |        Version:

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 After #3280 is done, the new Torperf should also be able to start and stop
 its tor processes.  Starting the processes should happen automatically
 after reading the configuration file.  Further, the new Torperf should
 have a config option or switch to stop all running tor processes.  Torperf
 could look at the tor.pid files in the directories under `DataDirectory`
 and sending these processes a kill signal.

 Assigning to tomb upon request.
