I happen to have the same issue with a maven 3.0.3 and nexus 1.9.2.2
It happens with a couple dependencies when activated a default-to-false
profile
The dependencies which are constantly downloading the metadata  are not
declared by me and a mvn dependency:tree wouldn't show them. These
dependencies are
istack-commons/1.1-SNAPSHOT/maven-metadata.xml
istack-commons-runtime/1.1-SNAPSHOT/maven-metadata.xml
staxex/stax-ex/maven-metadata.xml
