My point is, even google, AWS or facebook have some routing/datacenter 
issues, from time to time (the most recent some days ago with google DNS 
routing). So, choose 3 different HS hosted in different AS/datacenters 
and test them in round-robin.

But as nusenu already pointed out, maybe a better idea is to just test 
the exit node.

Interesting stuff, "KERNEL MAGIC" instead of LD_PRELOAD. Wish you 
success. Please keep us posted.

cheers.
