Further in support of the request, for _12_hours_ preceding the most recent 
crash, the daemon reported:

Your computer is too slow to handle this many circuit creation requests. . .
[450043 similar message(s) suppressed in last 60 seconds]

and for the attack on the fast exit machine:

[1091489 similar message(s) suppressed in last 60 seconds]

I see no reason _any_ router should _ever_ have to handle this volume of 
circuit requests.  DOS attacks no doubt whatsoever.  Rate limit is needed to 
mitigate the problem.
