#25208: Relays can upload a new descriptor every 2 minutes
------------------------------+-------------------------------------
Reporter: teor | Owner: (none)
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: Medium | Milestone: Tor: 0.3.3.x-final
Component: Core Tor/Tor | Version: Tor: 0.3.3.1-alpha
Severity: Normal | Keywords: tor-dos-related? crash?
Actual Points: | Parent ID:

------------------------------+-------------------------------------
Two relays started publishing descriptors every 2 minutes, and this caused
issues for Metrics-lib:
https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/metrics-
team/2018-February/000661.html
Maybe it's a crashing bug in 0.3.3.1-alpha?
In any case, we should probably restrict relays to a few (~6?) descriptors
per hour, and enforce this limit using the state file.
