I just flushed and got this message
"[Oct 27 15:41:06 UTC] The keyserver says: "Why is a cow ? Mu. (Ommmmmmmmmm)"

What's up? Something to do with the recent problems?
 
You'll see that once in a while. It just means there was a hiccup in the network between you and the proxy. Your client just takes the block it was trying to send and sticks it back in the out buffer. If you try to flush again, it will probably go through.

This is a just a way to make sure the data actually gets through. If the client doesn't get a valid check on each block it sends to the proxy, it assumes it didn't make it and saves it for later.
