+- Investigate sjmurdoch's PETS paper results (time permitting)
+  - Do his predictions on the distribution of latency expectations of 
+    nodes match what we can observe with TorFlow?
+    - Does this expectation of latencies say anything about the 7/8 cuttoff
+      for node usage? Maybe we want to tune slightly to avoid a lot of
+      high-latency nodes before the timeout stuff even comes into play?
