We started enabling congestion control on the live Tor network.
We started deploying congestion control on the live Tor network.
Users of Tor versions 0.4.7.5-alpha and above will experience faster performance when using Exits or Onion Services that have upgraded to 0.4.7.5-alpha and above. This faster performance will also increase the Advertised Bandwidth of relays, similar to our previous flooding experiments. Thus, the overall capacity of the network will appear to increase on [our network metrics](https://metrics.torproject.org/bandwidth-flags.html).
