Comment (by arthuredelstein):

 Replying to [comment:47 arma]:
 > b) I wonder if there are other tricks we should do to avoid screwing the
 usability of Tor while it's fetching the update -- like using Tor's
 circuit isolation feature to make it use a different circuit than other
 activity uses?

 I imagine circuit isolation for updates will be pretty straightforward via
 the #3455 patch.
