GETINFO bw-event-cache spike value(s) in it

Discussing with atagar an issue with the bandwidth graph of Nyx yield into the fact, that Tor reports 1 or 2 unusal high values when nyx is started. After a minute or so the effect is gone and Nyx can scale the y-axis to a reasonable value.

atagar found out, that there are 1 or 2 spike values in it (look for 3495411062,3952777936) of the debug out out of Nyx:

Just a guess: The 2 affected relays have about 20 - 40 MByte/sec bw. The spike values are often above 3,000,000,000, looking like an arbitrary unsigned long int.

Whilst the severity on the Nyx graph is negligible I do wonder about the root cause.
