I do still see this. I monitor it weekly when the log is emailed to me. This past week, as I had a couple of router restarts, it appears the flooding happens when the router comes up. Maybe it's part of the boot loader/initialization/establishing backhaul operation.

I'll keep watching it weekly and see if that pattern persists, or if flooding happens at other times. If it does, I'll update this thread.
