One reader wrote in asking why TorZon runs six mirrors in rotation rather than three like most other Tor storefronts. Short answer: redundancy math.

Three is the smallest number that survives a coordinated takedown of one node plus a random outage on another. Six is not double-safe. It is 2x redundancy on a stable baseline, useful during coordinated pressure events like a DDoS wave or a network-wide relay incident.

Longer version: with three mirrors, if one is taken offline by a rotation event and another has a bad guard for your circuit that week, you are down to one. With six, you keep a couple of options open even when two are having a rough day. The extra load per mirror is negligible because the storefront itself is a single backend.
