DESCRIPTION:Since the original implementation of the Tor anonymity network
 \, a number of possible improvements have been identified. Of particular i
 nterest to us was the insight that weighting node selection probabilities 
 as proportional to the node bandwidth may not be optimal. Building a purel
 y mathematical queuing model\, which we justify as being a good representa
 tion of the Tor network\, we demonstrate that this is indeed the case\, an
 d we derive an optimal solution. Finally we investigate some of the possib
 le problems with deploying the solution to Tor directly.
