     These options override the default behavior of Tor's (**currently

     through a guard before we make these checks.  The PathBiasNoticeRate,
     PathBiasWarnRate and PathBiasExtremeRate options control what fraction of
     circuits must succeed through a guard so we won't write log messages.
