It gets me past the "I don't really believe this, it must be some
misunderstanding" hurdle ;-)

Are you willing to do a few experiments?  Here is one idea:

1. Start your stream and add the initial flow to the flow table (in
   whatever order you like).  Let it run for a while, a few seconds at
   least.  

2. Dump stats with "ovs-ofctl dump-flows".

3. Stop your stream and "sleep 5" (or just wait 5 or more seconds
   patiently).

4. Dump stats with "ovs-ofctl dump-flows".

5. Restart your stream.  Let it run for a while, a few seconds at least.

6. Add your higher-priority flow to the flow table.  Let the stream run
   for a while, a few seconds at least.

7. Dump stats with "ovs-ofctl dump-flows".

The question I'm trying to answer is whether the low-priority flow's
stats drop to zero in step 7, or to the values seen in step 2, or
something else entirely.

Thanks,

Ben.
