Modeling Decisions
➔ Network topology → clustering by country➔ Network latency → iPlane trace-routes➔ Node bandwidth capacity → Net Index➔ Tor relay sample → bin-median sampling➔ Tor relay bandwidth rates → Tor metrics➔ Tor web clients → 320 KiB, think [1,20] seconds➔ Tor bulk clients → 5 MiB, no thinking➔ Client, server placement → Tor metrics
