 > I'm doing the following. I have a simple torrc that connets to an obfs3
 bridge. I bootstrap to that bridge once. Then kill Tor. Then try to
 bootstrap a second time immediately afterwards. I bootstrap normally with
 the #9229 patch. Without it, it takes 60s.

 (`fef65fa64341fb70df0e7b34d91d3b08a74e7aad`) no extra patches. `cached-
 descriptors.new` was populated with the bridge descriptor as normal.

 Maybe try a different DataDirectory? It also might matter that your Bridge
 line have a fingerprint.
