hmm OK. I can limit the number of concurrenct circuits that are being built but I do not believe that txtorcon let's me control the number of "connections" that little-t tor makes.
I *think* they should be equivalent? Controllers can't control everything Tor does, though (for example, Tor can decide to set up circuits to fetch things or do its own measurements).
Related to this might be my own scanner; I keep 20 circuits in-flight at any one time and am using random guards so it's "very unlikely" I'd even have two connections to the same first hop at the same time. However, I don't do anything about timing -- maybe we can take up this discussion in an IRC channel?
