 We should run vanilla Tor and KIST Tor on relays of similar capacities,
 and compare how KIST affects congestion and performance. Moritz agreed to
 provide some fast relays/exits for this, and Micah Sherr at Georgetown has
 a pair of 40 megabit/s non-exit relays.

 We'll need libkqtime to measure kernel input/output queue congestion in
 real time:
