Have a look at the code that determines the visual flow of data between relays: &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;unchartedsoftware&amp;#x2F;torflow&amp;#x2F;blob&amp;#x2F;master&amp;#x2F;public&amp;#x2F;javascripts&amp;#x2F;particles&amp;#x2F;particlesystem.js&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;github.com&amp;#x2F;unchartedsoftware&amp;#x2F;torflow&amp;#x2F;blob&amp;#x2F;master&amp;#x2F;pub...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;I think it doesn&amp;#x27;t &lt;i&gt;exactly&lt;/i&gt; reflect how paths are chosen based on relay bandwidth scores, if we compare to the actual path selection algorithm: &lt;a href=&quot;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;tor.stackexchange.com&amp;#x2F;a&amp;#x2F;114&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;tor.stackexchange.com&amp;#x2F;a&amp;#x2F;114&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;I might be missing something, but it seems that relay same-family and same-&amp;#x2F;16-subnet exclusions are ignored. This might bias the visualization to increase the apparent traffic between popular nodes, while in reality, the traffic should be slightly more evened out with less popular nodes. Hard to tell if this effect makes any visible difference without analyzing the data, though. Either way, because of the way the code is structured, it shouldn&amp;#x27;t be too hard to fix: just simulate full paths instead of single connections between nodes.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>TorFlow</title><url>https://torflow.uncharted.software/</url></story>
