I'm sure you could make your system quiet, watch your packet/byte counters, download a few different things (youtube videos, FreeBSD iso's, whatever), on and off tor and post the results. You could do the same with a fixed browsing session (many small html) instead of single data files. Clear your cache, etc. Encrypted data can be much less if the algo compresses it first. A bit can be added for each stream due to key exchange. Then there is routing setup. Your results will say more. _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
