Significant drop in unrestricted proxies
https://snowflake-broker.torproject.net/metrics looks like the count dropped from 7201 on 2024-09-11 10:17:05 to just 3399 on 2024-09-12 10:17:05.
I suspect this might be related to my recent changes that were included in the last deployment #40383 (closed): !390 (diffs). Apologies if that is the case.
I tested a Snowflake proxy on my VPS with a public IP. The probetest server responds with the answer in 5 seconds most of the time, which means that ICE gathering does get completed and it's not about the timeout. On my own machine (with a restricted NAT) the response time is the same. Could it be different for some proxies with a different NAT?
Could it be related to the new iceGatheringTimeout
? Is 10 seconds not enough for the probetest server to gather enough candidates? Should we increase the timeout back? To 25 seconds?
Or is there a different explanation?
