+ o Minor features:
+ - Stop sending the CREATE_FAST cells by default; instead, use a
+ parameter in the consensus to decide whether to use
+ CREATE_FAST. This can improve security on connections where
+ Tor's circuit handshake is stronger than the available TLS
+ connection security levels. Implements proposal 221.
