Comment (by asn):
Just some notes from a recent discussion about onionbalance vs the current
poor man's onionbalance where every node races each other for uploading
descriptors:
With the poor man's solution, there are issues when you start
removing/rebooting nodes, since if the offline node currently has the
active descriptor there will be reachability issues until another node
wins the race.
We could fix this by making all nodes upload more frequently, and be able
to pause publishes from the rebooting node, and also by ensuring that all
clients will re-fetch descriptors smoothly if they can't connect to the
intro points.
