-----------------------------+------------------------------
 The reputation code (`rephist.c`) has internal variables to keep track on
 the memory allocated by its objects. However, when the bandwidth arrays
 are freed, it forgets to decrease the memory allocation counter. This
 leads to discrepancy between the recorded and the actual amount of memory
 that is allocated when the bandwidth arrays are reinitialized.
