This however, will likely lead to missing ARP Replies from the original host. Which in turn leads to the DAT DHT not being updated. Then the local DAT cache entry will time out, triggering a unicasted DHT_GET. However, as the 5min. timeout has passed, the DAT DHT candidates will likely have purged their entry, too. So basically this results in an ARP Request broadcast fallback every five minutes. A second issue is that it is quite common that a host which has long gone offline will be tried to be contacted by another one at some remote period larger than the current 5min. timeout. This too leads to flooded ARP Requests. With this patch the purge timeout for DAT DHT entries is increased to 30min to reduce the number of DAT ARP broadcast fallbacks.
