    It may thus be quite reasonable to build in a hard cutoff in
    service time . . . since the extreme delay which triggers the
    expedited transmission is an unpredictable and infrequent event

This is not a safe assumption.  Check out the stats for ghio at kaiwan.com.

    it will not make cryptanalysis of the remailer any easier.

I'm pretty sure that cryptanalysis, per se, is not the question, but
rather traffic analysis.
