Raising the minRelayTxFee to 5000 was controversial among some developers. Likely the temporal bump for the .10 and .11 branches won't be needed in the .12 branch, so resetting the fee to 1000 may be the right thing to do.

Drop minRelayTxFee to 1000
There is no exact science to setting this parameter, but 5000 (just over 1 US cent at the time of writing) is higher than the cost to relay a transaction around the network (the new benchmark due to mempool limiting).

This is racing ahead of issues. Let's first merge a better solution (or do this as part of a better solution). Right now, this will simply bring back the memory exhaustion problem.
