this is confusing, and might provoke some "OMG I AM A CLIENT WHAT KIND OF STATS ARE YOU COLLECTING" arguments (two people on #tor asked about this and one on the blog, now I know how they learned about stats stuff). probably a patch like this: ``` diff --git a/src/or/config.c b/src/or/config.c index ca4e71c..01d4036 100644 --- a/src/or/config.c +++ b/src/or/config.c @@ -1410,8 +1410,9 @@ options_act(or_options_t *old_options) tor_free(actual_fname); } - if (options->CellStatistics || options->DirReqStatistics || - options->EntryStatistics || options->ExitPortStatistics) { + if (server_mode(options) && + (options->CellStatistics || options->DirReqStatistics || + options->EntryStatistics || options->ExitPortStatistics)) { time_t now = time(NULL); int print_notice = 0; if ((!old_options || !old_options->CellStatistics) && ``` or something would fix it, but I need to look closer at it.
