[3]: Please, don't give all the shit relays to me as bridges. I think it's
     less important scalability-wise (right now) to have a strict cutoff rate
     for bridges, but eventually, when/if we ever have Bridge Bandwidth
     Authorities, BridgeDB should cut off anything below some completely
     arbitrary rate, like 100 KB/s. I've gotten a bridge (from
     http://bridges.torproject.org) which was 28 B/s. Yes, *bytes*. That thing
     was probably slowing down the rest of the Tor network just by *existing*
     via its molasses-speeds blocking the Exit from continuing the response
     after SENDME number of cells, which is probably eventually going to cause
     TCP timeouts on the Exit's side and a whole bunch of other messes.
