#13718: Reachability Tests aren't conducted if there are no exit nodes
-------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Reporter: tom | Owner: teor
Type: defect | Status: assigned
Priority: normal | Milestone: Tor: 0.2.6.x-final
Component: Tor | Version: Tor: 0.2.6.1-alpha
Resolution: | Keywords: tor-relay test-network lorax
Actual Points: | chutney 026-deferrable

Comment (by teor):
A relay with AssumeReachable 0 now makes it into the consensus after
around 30-40 seconds.
The minimum time should be (each consensus is 10 seconds apart with a 4s
lead-up):
* 1 consensus to determine available relays, excluding this one (4s,
initial consensus)
* some time to download descriptors, and make an initial connection
* some time to make a connection to ourselves for ORPort self-testing
* some time to rebuild and upload descriptor
* 1 consensus to determine available relays, including this one (4s-14s)
So if we can spend up to 18 seconds simply building consensuses, 30-40
seconds is a fair amount of elapsed time to complete this whole process.
This probably means we should increase the default src/test/test-
network.sh bootstrap time to 40 seconds.
