Apparently my comment is being misinterpreted (evident by the downvotes) :/ To clarify: It's simply amazing the scale at which you have to get to for spiped to need a new key. It's a tribute to its design and its author. If I understand it right, in order for this to be a real issue, an attacker would have to spend decades or centuries diligently recording either 18 quintillion connections or 18 billion gigabytes of your encrypted traffic in order to even begin to try cracking the key in any serious way. The solution to this "vulnerability"? Switch out your key (takes a few seconds tops). I laugh because of Colin's dry humor matter-of-factness about this mind-blowing level of scale. If you missed his own poking fun at it, read his other comments in this thread :)
