Original Title: With how Tor is getting faster and faster, what’s the maximum theoretical download speed (in relation to your normal speed) that you could get (percentage wise)? For example, would it be possible, if you had a internet speed of 1Tbps, to get a DL speed on Tor of 900 Gbps? If not, what’s the limit?

And why does that particular percentage speed limit exist? I know the connection is slowed down partly because it has to be bounced around a bunch beforehand, but obviously the dev’s of Tor know how to get even faster speeds on a per capita basis even though they still follow this process
