Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Hi arma, once again this is happening in the context of accessing some
 hidden services.

 I don't understand why it is happening, I mean if those relays were picked
 because they were the hsdir of the service at the time, well tor had 5
 other hsdirs to check for the information instead.

 but, if those relays were picked by my client as RP to the hidden service,
 then that's a good candidate of a bug in tor.

 Maybe what is happening is the hidden service is gone, and all the other 5
 hsdirs were checked for the descriptor and it was just time for the 6th
 check? I don't know, i'm not too familiar with the mechanics of that.
