Comment (by s7r):

 Hmm, you mean 6 circuits to fetch descriptors from each HSDir launched for
 each (one) socks request to a hidden service?

 I also think this could be discussed for v3 only. However, it might be
 overkill to request to all HSDirs for each socks connection, requesting to
 2 or 3 HSDirs at once and close rest of requests once one is successful
 could be sufficient.
