Comment (by dgoulet):

 Just patched my fast relay with the hs-stats branch to monitor that.

 Wondering, why so many fetches would fail here? Like if the botnet client
 was trying a huge amount of onion address and ony a few actually exists?
 Seems like a poor way of trying to reach a specific C&C...
