Comment(by arma):

 One guess is that it's learning about the bridge, then marking it down for
 some reason (e.g. #3443), then 60 minutes later it launches a descriptor
 fetch to the bridge and marks it back up.
 {{{
 /** Schedule for when clients should download bridge descriptors. */
 static const int bridge_dl_schedule[] = {
   60*60, 15*60, 15*60, 60*60
 };
 }}}

 A debug-level log would help a great deal.
