Interesting question. From what I understood a new circuit is created for every TCP-connection. If your browser grabs, for instance, 6 images at the same time (6 loading instances == connections), Tor should open 6 different circuits. However, considering your question... It doesn't sound too efficient to me... The slides say "If the user wants to access a different site, Alice's Tor client selects a different path." I'm curious how strict I should read that... Site vs. TCP-connections? Alex. > Regards, > Steve > -- "I am tired of all this sort of thing called science here...
