[tor-talk] Bandwidth Scheduling for Relays

[Lars Noodén]

I have a feature request.  It would be nice for a future version of Tor
to allow scheduling at least one alternate values for RelayBandwidthRate
and RelayBandwidthBurst for a span of time.  This would allow relays to
operate at higher speeds when their host network is normally less active.

One example is from torrent software.  Transmission allows one alternate
speed for one block of time.  kTorrent allows much more complex
scheduling varying by hour and day of week.

However, this is not a high priority compared to some other things.  And
one current workaround is to have multiple configuration files and to
load them with cron.
