0001024: Elves continuously emptying and filling their pack animals at the trade depot
I had an elven caravan stop by at a trade depot about 14 z-levels down. I didn't trade with them, and after a while I got the message that they were leaving. About 5-10 minutes later I noticed that they hadn't left yet - they were filling their pack animals up and then dumping everything back out.

The status of the depot said that there were no merchants there, so I removed the depot, a bunch of stuff the elves brought was left behind, and they went on their way.
No tags attached.

I got this too with the dwarven merchants, however after a save/load they immediately packed up normally and left.

This just sounds like http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=325 [^] to me. When the elves start bringing obscene amount of cargo, it simply takes them a ridiculous amount of time to load and unload all the goodies, even multiple seasons.
