[j-nsp] [SRX650] show pfe statistics weirdness

Hello,

There is something I don't understand.
There is a SRX650 running BFD for OSPF sessions. BFD is working, however I
wanted to make sure that it is processed in PFE.
All counters of "show pfe statistics traffic protocol bfd" are zero, but
BFD-related counters of "show pfe statistics traffic" are on-zero and
increasing. What might be the reason of such difference?

thanks
Nick

OS: 10.4R4.5
BFD is running on ge-0/0/1
