Comment (by nickm):

 FWIW, I would expect that the kistlite bug #24671 fixed in 0.3.2.8-rc
 might have made Tor use way too much kernel ram; we can take this change,
 but we should keep monitoring Tor's memory usage to see whether our
 estimates are right.  (Also, over time, we should make MaxMemInQueues
 cover more and more of the things that Tor allocates for.  But that
 doesn't affect this ticket.)
