 There is a need to load-test Tor relays when bringing them up, and to
 performance-test tor in general, whether relaying or hidden services.

 See:
 Tor BSD Underperformance https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-
 dev/2015-January/008048.html
 Simulate high Tor load https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-
 relays/2015-January/006203.html

 It would be nice if `chutney verify` connections were done in parallel,
 but I don't think that's the case.

 Nick, is this SponsorR, or SponsorS, or both?
