Comment (by cypherpunks):

 I've got the warning

 `Tor is currently configured as a relay and a hidden service. That's not
 very secure: you should probably run your hidden service in a separate Tor
 process, at least -- see https://trac.torproject.org/8742`

 while I'm running a hidden service ''and'' a bridge. Looks like a bug to
 me, since by bandwidth graphs are not public, thus not leaking anything
 useful.
