using sendtoaddress is calculating wrong/high fees

Using a standard sendtoaddress call during our priming phase is generating high txfees.

Couple of examples:

This happened after we upgraded. The previous version we were using didn't see this behavior.

Has this been resolved ?

No, the issue still persists. We've been able to mitigate by hardcoding a value for settxfee.

This looks like it's the same issue as https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/10247 upstream, which is actively being worked on.

That definitely sounds like it. Is there a plan to rebase to latest with the bug fixes?
