Comment(by arma):

 {{{
 routerlist.c:#define MAX_CLIENT_INTERVAL_WITHOUT_REQUEST (10*60)
 }}}

 This one is another huge problem. It means that any client using
 TestingTorNetwork but where directory_fetches_dir_info_early(options) is
 false has to win its directory fetches on the first try or it'll be ten
 more minutes (two consensus periods) until it tries again.
