That was what I was trying to tell you a few days ago.

There is a filter between the raw packets and peerstats.  Only a few of the 
packets make it through.  loopstats is only updated when peerstats for 
sys_peer gets updated.

OK.  Sent off list.

The system was working as expected.

You can either make the 1024 in your test big enough to cover the normal 
case, or you can pick a number like an hour or two and live with the false 
positives.

The last column in loopstats is the (log 2 of the) polling interval.  You 
could multiply that by 8 on the fly.
