DHT Sweep only sees 1 Region when Accelerated Client is enabled

Version

0.39.0

Description

  • Ref. https://github.com/ipfs/kubo/pull/11084:

    (⚠️ 0.39 limitation) When used with Provide.DHT.SweepEnabled, the sweep provider may fail to estimate DHT size during the accelerated client's network crawl, resulting in all CIDs grouped into a single region. Content still gets reprovided, but without sweep efficiency gains. Consider disabling the accelerated client when using sweep mode.

Briefly discussed this with @guillaumemichel and we will look into this in 2026Q1, for now added caveat in docs (#11084)
