I just wonder how often will Tor send a packet when the circuit is idle (when you launch Tor and do not visit any website)? I think Tor will regularly send a cell to keep the circuit alive.
I did not find any solid number in Tor's manual.

Unless you've modified the KeepalivePeriod
in your torrc
, it should be using the default value, which is 300 seconds (5 minutes) according to the documentation.
