Is your CS tracer configured to output every second or every 0.1 seconds?  If former, I'm not sure why it is not showing 100...

That's strange. I was able to reproduce the problem if I select "old" style of the content store.  As of right now, there is a broken enumeration of the content store entries in the python bindings when the old style is used.  We'll try to fix it soon.

There is some strange issue with NS-3.  I've made a workaround that will be pushed to master branch as soon as CI tests finish. You can check the code here: https://gerrit.named-data.net/#/c/2902/ <https://gerrit.named-data.net/#/c/2902/>

Thanks for pointing to the problems!
