Wait, what?

This must be the problem that I had earlier when I got strange error 
messages from Bird with the routing prefixes.

Since I disabled the SMP in all of the four machines that runs bird, I 
have not have this problem anymore.

As Pawel sad about this spikes, I see this as well when I run traceroute 
for example. Now I know where they are coming from.
