Comment(by karsten):

 I just attached the
 [https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/attachment/ticket/2963/torperf50kb-2013-07-04.log.gz
 info-level log of the 50KiB torperf from July 4].  This is Tor version
 0.2.2.35 (git-b04388f9e7546a9f).  Also, here's the torrc:

 {{{
 DataDirectory .
 SocksPort 9020
 MaxCircuitDirtiness 1 minute
 UseEntryGuards 0
 RunAsDaemon 1
 Log info file log
 ControlPort 10020
 CookieAuthentication 1
 PidFile tor.pid
 }}}

 Am I looking at the right log lines, or what lines should I look at?

 Also, please note that any change we make to the consensus download
 interval has huge impact on our user-counting algorithm.  If we make
 future tors smarter about downloading consensuses less frequently, we'll
 have a hard time adapting our user-counting algorithm.
