Comment (by yawning):

 Sorry for the conflicting ChangeLogs, I used separate branches for each
 patch.  Someone that's not me that knows the obfsproxy internals more
 should come up with a rate limiting scheme.

 I would go and thread ScrambleSuit's UniformDH handshake as well, but it's
 less of an issue since it takes knowing the bridge key to be able to force
 obfsproxy to do the modular exponentiation.
