-------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Tor's circuit padding only operates on individual circuits. For
 fingerprints that span the creation of multiple circuits, it may be useful
 to provide some probability of launching new circuits devoted exclusively
 to padding (CIRCUIT_PURPOSE_C_CIRCUIT_PADDING).

 At the moment, it is not clear if these circuits should be launched
 probabilisticly, or by some event-driven mechanism.
