 Once we get the client-side of #4927 (tbb + obfs) building, I wonder if we
 should seed it with a fast stable obfs2 bridge. That way you can use your
 own obfs2 bridge, but you can also try out obfs2 without needing to find
 your own.

 Clearly, if the bundle becomes way popular, that bridge will get hammered
 in terms of bandwidth.

 But will obfsproxy hold up until that point, on the bridge side? Or will
 it fall over earlier? Any guesses, or better, some way to find out for
 reals?
