---------------------------------+--------------------
 When running the bandwidth scanner with recent tor versions, the pathbias
 detector complains about circuit state at notice level.
 This could quickly fill the logs.

 I suggest we add this to the bottom of tor.1/torrc and tor.2/torrc:
 {{{
 # Turn pathbias off, so it doesn't flood the logs
 UseEntryGuards 0
 }}}
