+ // It takes only several hundred requests to scrape everything from an AddrMan containing 100,000 nodes,

+ // most of it could be scraped (considering that timestamps are updated via
+ // ADDR self-announcements and when nodes communicate).
+ // We also should be robust to those attacks which may not require scraping *full* victim's AddrMan
+ // (because even several timestamps of the same handful of nodes may leak privacy).
+ //
+ // On the other hand, longer cache lifetime makes ADDR responses
+ // outdated and less useful for an honest requestor, e.g. if most nodes
+ // in the ADDR response are no longer active.
+ //
+ // However, the churn in the network is known to be rather low. Since we consider
