[tor-dev] Weaving a Faster Tor: paper/video of possible interest

[Ian Goldberg]

Hello tor-dev,

Steve Engler (currently part of the Shadow team) and I have a paper of
possible interest to appear at ARES 2021 next month.

It's a design of a multi-threaded relay architecture, of possible
particular interest when considering relay support in arti, for example
(though the proof-of-concept implementation is based on the usual C
codebase).

If you're interested, here are previews of:
