Hi Damian, If I run tor-prompt and ARM side by side, the tor-prompt results are updated when I do a GETINFO circuit-status. The ARM circuits page only updates after a restart. Maybe my system/configuration has something to do with the problem. I run my Tor proxy (and ARM) on an Allwinner A20 ARM system with Debian Jessie as OS.

Re: [tor-dev] strange ARM results
Hi Rob. I suppose it's possible arm is having a refresh issue but can't say there's a known bug around that. To double check try running tor-prompt and giving it 'GETINFO circuit-status'... https://stem.torproject.org/tutorials/down_the_rabbit_hole.html This is the command arm uses to get the circuit information. > ARM version 1.4.5 seems to be the latest version.

How did you attempt to run it? Nyx is under active development so quite possible I buggered something up but can't say I've seen this one.

It seems more likely that this is a refresh issue, either in arm or in the tor event code. Can you replicate it with the latest stable versions of tor and arm? > Note: I use ARM version: 1.4.5.0, Tor version: 0.2.5.12 That's a very old version of tor.

[tor-dev] strange ARM results
Hi folks, I'm on a quest to find the average circuit-creation rate of clients. I looked in path-spec.txt to find an answer, but it wasn't there. So I thought: lets take some measurements using ARM. This got me some strange results. I start ARM, do some browsing, and close my browser. During the browsing ARM reports 3 circuits with ID's: 398, 399 and 400. These circuits are still there 45 minutes after the browser was closed. If I then restart ARM it reports that there are only two circuits, with circuit ID's 405 and 406. It looks to me that ARM does not update the circuits page when old circuits are closed and replaced by new circuits. It's also possible that ARM keeps old circuits alive after they are not being used anymore by my Tor proxy. Note: I use ARM version: 1.4.5.0, Tor version: 0.2.5.12 Regards, Rob. https://hoevenstein.nl ___ tor-dev mailing list tor-dev@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-dev
