Comment(by mr-4):

 Replying to [comment:8 nickm]:
 > That's still pretty alpha, alas, and it's going to run into bugs.  You
 might want to disable it for now if you want a more stable server.
 Nope - if I wanted close-to-100% stable server I would have stayed with
 2.3.x.

 I like this version of tor, not least because of the memory footprint - it
 seems to be much less than 2.3.x. It also doesn't have the annoying
 messages I used to keep getting my syslog filled with. There are other
 reasons for staying with 2.4.x too, not least to help with the testing.

 > But in either case, let's see if we can figure this one out.  I seem to
 recall that there was a related problem with shutting down connections in
 the libevent rate-limiting test; that's a good place for us to start
 debuggign.
 I am all for that, though I should make you aware - I am running tor on a
 RAM-only device where debugging tools are virtually non-existent.

 When I prepare the image, it is compressed and locked in as read-only.
 That image is then uncompressed and loaded into RAM at bootup (my "/" is
 in RAM). So, after a reboot all changes are, obviously, completely lost.

 With all that in mind, I am a willing tester and want to get to the bottom
 of this bug...
