Comment (by karsten):

 Good question!  First answer: microdescriptors are already grouped by
 download time, so this issue already exists and is not something we'd
 introduce now.

 Second answer: I remember this was painful when implementing the code a
 few years back.  I can't provide you with a good solution right now, but I
 suggest reading up how the current code handles this issue.  One possible
 starting point:

 https://gitweb.torproject.org/collector.git/tree/src/main/java/org/torproject/collector/relaydescs/RelayDescriptorDownloader.java#n70

 Let's talk more next week if this doesn't make sense.  I just wanted to
 confirm that this is indeed an issue, but also say that it's nothing we're
 introducing right now.
