Public bug reported:

During normal operation of the network the swarm continues to increase
the number of node to node links in an uncontrolled manner. This
eventually leads to a completely connected network. Although we don't
know if this is actually affecting the performance of the system it is
making debugging and viewing more difficult. Regardless, there is code
there to prevent more than X number of connections so it should really
be working. This problem is related to the opening and closing of return
connections.

The problem is exhibited on the latest version of the code, and a fix
should be targeted for the demo day version.
