Congestion management arrives in Tor 0.4.7. It means a quicker Tor. Exit relay operators: Please Improve!. What results would possibly it have on Bitcoin base/higher layers?

Congestion Management Arrives in Tor 0.4.7-stable [1]Congestion management will remove the velocity restrict of present Tor, in addition to scale back latency by minimizing queue lengths at relays. It is going to end in important efficiency enhancements in Tor, in addition to elevated utilization of our community capability.

Congestion Management Means a Sooner Tor [2]Customers of Tor variations 0.4.7 and above will expertise quicker efficiency when utilizing Exits or Onion Providers which have upgraded to 0.4.7. Which means to ensure that customers to see the advantages of those enhancements, we want our Exit relay operators to improve to the brand new Tor 0.4.7 steady sequence, asap!

Exit Relay Operators: Please Improve! [3]The quicker efficiency and elevated utilization of congestion management means that we’ll quickly be capable of use the complete capability of the Tor community. Which means all relays will quickly expertise new bottlenecks. Congestion management ought to stop these bottlenecks from overwhelming relays fully, however this habits could come as a shock to operators who had been used to the final a number of years of low CPU and bandwidth utilization.

The Future [4][…] this doesn’t imply that Tor won’t ever carry UDP visitors. Quite the opposite, congestion management deployment signifies that queue delay and latency can be rather more steady and predictable. This can allow us to carry UDP with out packet drops within the community, and solely drop UDP on the edges, when the congestion window turns into full. We’re hopeful that this new habits will match what present UDP protocols count on, permitting their use over Tor.

**What results would possibly it have on Bitcoin layers?**Is there already or will there be any enchancment in Bitcoin information transmission attributable to this enchancment. What gave the impression of one thing fascinating, however non-existent 4 years in the past, can be on the desk in the present day, e.g.: Why doesn’t Bitcoin use UDP to do Blockpropagation? and Can somebody please clarify FIBRE to me like I am 5 and why is it helpful?
Many questions cross my thoughts on the sting of metaphysics, others stay solely in physics. Tor, layers, cash, BTC, layers, atomic orbitals of the electron with totally different power ranges, layers, paperwork, extreme synthetic and unjustified layers, liers, attorneys, von der Leyens… life: layers.
A few of these concepts/phrases are influenced/copied by a few of you on this sub. Perhaps you’ll be able to recognise your phrases and know that they haven’t been completely missed. Thanks.
The very first thing that involves thoughts is the LN⚡️. This community is already in the present day virtually instantaneous. Nonetheless, I feel that within the eyes of uneducated and/or disinterested customers, the quicker the higher.
I might very very similar to to experiment with LN, however as a result of limitations of my obtainable {hardware} assets I can not but allow my very own node. Then I may converse with information and numbers on this explicit subject. Within the meantime I can solely do analysis, however with advances like these I permit myself within the meantime to dream of higher transmissions at quantum speeds simply by optimising what we have already got. It appears apparent to me that each networks ought to work collectively and profit us with their velocity and privateness and layers and all the things else. Pure engineering.
