I hate to ask this, but are you sure you're using Tor? :) That's the
first thing that comes to mind when people say "wow, cool, Tor is just
as fast as my normal connection."

We have been making some improvements to speed and reliability, but not
that you describe above, I think.

It's also hard to get a consistent feel for performance changes in the
code, since the network itself varies so much in how hosed it is.
