tor hangs for 30 seconds when parsing torrc ending in backslash-newline
When parsing torrc files that end in backslash then newline, tor hangs for approximately 30 seconds.
Examples:
ORPort \
HTTPProxy \
I have confirmed this issue in tor 0.2.6.8 and tor 0.2.7.1-alpha.
Note:
- the eventual result is still a failed parse, which is correct
- the issue is of delay/annoyance value at best
- triggering the issue requires access to torrc
