I’ve been seeing this messages in my Tor log:
[notice] Guard is failing more circuits than usual. Most likely this means the Tor network is overloaded. Success counts are 115/186. Use counts are 83/83. 122 circuits completed, 0 were unusable, 7 collapsed, and 46 timed out. For reference, your timeout cutoff is 60 seconds.
[warn] Guard is failing a very large amount of circuits. Most likely this means the Tor network is overloaded, but it could also mean an attack against you or potentially the guard itself. Success counts are 147/294. Use counts are 91/93. 154 circuits completed, 1 were unusable, 6 collapsed, and 62 timed out. For reference, your timeout cutoff is 60 seconds.
[warn] Guard is failing an extremely large amount of circuits. This could indicate a route manipulation attack, extreme network overload, or a bug. Success counts are 87/290. Use counts are 64/66. 88 circuits completed, 0 were unusable, 1 collapsed, and 121 timed out. For reference, your timeout cutoff is 60 seconds.
Is Tor Network actually overloaded now (anyone else sees these messages)? I hope this doesn’t mean that I’m being attacked.
I guess there is a chance that the entry guards I’m using are being attacked or overloaded, but what are the chances that both guards that I use would be overloaded or attacked?
