Please do read:

So where in your tests are at least:

- randomization
- replication
- blocking

You cannot check only once and then conclude anything from that. Tor
network is really a place where you should do a statistical research
as is almost as far from deterministic as it can be.

So, for example:

- measure multiple times
- try different circuits, different nodes
- all this choose randomly
- and repeat, repeat, at different hours, different days for some
larger period of time
