   arm/trunk/src/util/torConfig.py
Log:
Including descriptions for the config options on the settings panel.

This is adding about 200ms to arm's startup time. I'll try to improve this next (nickm suggested saving cached results to disk, which should take care of this for subsiquent runs).

+  * The log panel gets cripplingly slow if the log grows to be even moderately
+    large (200 entries or so). This is most likely due to the hack for
+    dynamically determining the content height. Check if a solution like the
+    one for the confFilePanel will work.
   * path for sample armrc in man page is wrong
   * when in client mode and tor stops the header panel doesn't say so
   * util are assuming that tor is running under the default command name
