Hi Martin! This is a not an attack, I intend this as a genuine question: I
would be interested to know what you feel constitutes "acceptable
performance" - because of the clear outcomes of my work was that running
DNS queries over Tor was of comparable latency to many people's experience
of running local "advert-filtering" stub revolvers such as PiHole.

As such, I for one am no longer concerned about ever-lower latency, as
opposed to "good enough".

I would be really interested in what you considered "good enough"?
