The search statistics are actually disabled because they tended to use a lot of
CPU and RAM too I think. I'm not sure what the exact problem was, as it is not
much code, but I didn't consider it useful enough to bother. I'm more worried
about the net effect than the local effect.  If gtk-gnutella nodes disappear or
people stop using it because it blocks and uses a lot of CPU - for a reason
that it is not obvious, that's bad for everyone else on the network as well.

Also the value of these statistics is questionable since query routing was
introduced and especially for leaves. Maybe it should be stripped from the GUI.
So far nobody has complained about it.
