Just installed slimcoin for the first time. Heights are all over the place. Is this because of crazy forking, or is it just coincidental that the majority (all but 1?) of the peers my client has connected to are not synced?
"height" : 15164,

I've been stuck at 58371 for 45 mins, so something funny is definitely going on.
edit: and about 2 mins after I post this msg it starts syncing again, now synced to block 59796 (30 seconds old)
edit2: watching the debug log I can see many peers seem to be stuck in the classic infinite loop where they request a set of blocks, decide they are invalid (since they're on a fork), but then request the same blocks again, over and over. I guess the massive variation in heights is due to forking.
