With Tor, this may lead to a slower Internet experience. As an example, a person located in Europe loading a European website may receive a circuit exiting in the US. This means the connection has to cross the Atlantic twice (EU -> US -> EU). After a circuit with Tor is established all your other connection will use the same route.

With Tor, this may lead to a slower Internet experience. As an example, a person located in Europe loading a European website may receive a circuit exiting in the US. This means the connection has to cross the Atlantic twice (EU -> US -> EU). After a circuit with plain Tor is established all your other connection will use the same route. A circuit change normally occurs every 10 minutes. With the SPN however, every connection is calculated individually and leaves the network as near to the destination as possible. This means:
