The condor_startd does some benchmarking to measure the speed of the machine
before sending an update. The condor_collector process might very well start
before the condor_startd process on a machine, recieve an update message
from another startd, and answer a condor_status query before the startd
on the collector machine has finished it's benchmark. 

Bottom line: It's no big deal, don't worry about it :)
