three connections IP from bitcoinj

[Adam Millerchip]

Hello.

I'm observing the incoming connections on a bitcoin node (running Satoshi 0.14.0).

I've noticed that bitcoinj-based clients open three connections per IP address. Does anybody know why this is?

Just curious, thanks.

Adam.

Hmm, that's certainly not normal. Can you share logs?

It's not happening anymore - maybe it was a local issue.

Here is an excerpt from the log at the time it was happening. It doesn't contain the remote IP unfortunately, so it's not very useful. I notice that "us" is 127.0.0.1 for the duplicate connections, so maybe it's related to the local peer database?

I see a lot of "double connections" by non-bitcoinj peers in your logs
too. So I assume this is/was a local problem.
