Maybe that's some bug in the code that is triggered on connection pressure... Try increasing `ulimit -n` (number of files) for the process, anyway, current limit is not enough to...

@reith I see port 9050 and I assume that you're using `tor` to handle the traffic. If that's true, have you considered using `TransPort` feature of the tor daemon? It...

Thanks! I'm looking forward to your comments and/or approval to continue submitting a few more chunks from my patch stack :-)

I've tested the branch on `Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.50GHz (family: 0x6, model: 0xd, stepping: 0x8)` running `Linux version 5.15.162 (builder@buildhost) (i486-openwrt-linux-musl-gcc (OpenWrt GCC 12.3.0 r24012-d8dd03c46f) 12.3.0, GNU ld (GNU...

@polcodav как оно часто бывает, задача "сделать хорошо" оказалась чуть сложнее, чем я ожидал. Но, как говорится, "мы работаем над этим вопросом". Если любопытны детали — был месяц назад [небольшой...

(As a sidenote on speed). I've found it quite interesting that fast [PCG RNG](https://www.pcg-random.org/) (numpy's default prng) is predictable, but [seed reconstruction out of 64 consecutive values](https://tosc.iacr.org/index.php/ToSC/article/view/8700) is a non-trivial...
