Let's start by this output :

I'm using 2.02+pango from mldonkeyworld

In 2 days, is it considered normal to see 200000 different "new 
mldonkey/emule mods" edonkey peers ?
Looking at my downloads' sources, some of the downloads have the very 
same nickname listed dozens of times.
I suspect some peers may answer each request/make requests with 
different client's MD4s (circumventing aggressive behavior banning rules 
maybe).
Before, auto_max_sources_per_file = true gave me 60-80 sources per file. 
Now mldonkey looks for 1000...  apparently it easily finds new buggy 
ones :-(

Download and upload rate are (still?) fine, but the CPU usage is going 
through the roof (40% on an AthlonXP 1700+ !), maybe looking into such a 
large peer list begins to be really costly.
