Sparrow is good. Are you referring to the initial mix or remixes?

Initial mix should be basically instant, and will break 100% of deterministic links.

Remixes can take time as remixers are chosen at random. Note that remixing is not necessary to gain privacy, as additional mixes that you don’t participate in also increase your forward looking anonset.

Yes, but what if everyone had the attitude that only 1 mix was needed?

More mixes = better for everyone

Also if there's mention of how it can be strengthened over time there should be mention of how it can be weakened overtime by people combining change utxo and mixed utxo.

FYI I've noticed serious issues connecting to Samourai's centralized whirlpool coordinator over Tor using Sparrow. Switch to using a VPN to mask your IP and it's wayyy faster. YMMV.

Forgot to mention: this was for remixes specifically.
