Summary:  Inexplainable massive source counts 

Original Submission:  In the recent weeks, I've seen an rather bizarre effect 
with mldonkey. For popular files, the source count quickly goes up to around 
30000, is then eventually reduced to the configured source count limit (500), 
goes up quickly again and so on and so on...

The source flooding seems to effectivly prevent normal downloads from taking 
place; most of the upstream bandwidth seems to be spent in managing the sources.

I've seen this with 2.5.21, but cross-checked with 2.5.20 and 2.5.19 that is 
happens there as well.

Activated networks are Donkey and Bittorrent. All Donkey settings are at their 
defaults (except for the ClientID). An randomly choosen example of such a file 
is:
